Tower Crane (Potain/MC 310 K16) - SWL16 T x 70m Radius

Getting ready to rig up the tower crane.  Although she can go up to 70 over metres high, we will stop at 30m.  She will come in handy when operation starts.  Crane spec can be found here http://www.manta.com.sg/pdf/topkit/MC310K16.pdf.

Arrival of Liebherr 85-Ton Crawler Crane

After much deliberation on option 1, 2, 3, 4.............., we finally got the crane into the estate on 20 Jan 2010. Time to get it to work! Our GM, CP Tai was personally on site to make sure everything went well (and also to get some photos).
