Understanding Tower Cranes

Tower cranes are a common sight at construction sites where skyscrapers and other multi-story buildings are being erected. These cranes are modular, allowing them to be erected by smaller cranes with a mast height and jib length that will enable them to perform their work without interfering with the structure or other tower cranes on site.

Types of Tower Cranes

Tower cranes come in several types, including hammerhead tower cranes, flat-top tower cranes, luffing jib cranes, and self-erecting tower cranes.

Hammerhead tower cranes are generally T-shaped, with a vertical steel lattice mast and a lattice jib mounted perpendicular to it. Flat-top tower cranes, also called 'topless cranes,' resemble hammerheads but have no A-frame.

Luffing jib cranes have a jib that is not limited to horizontal operation. It can also be raised vertically using hydraulics or a cable. These cranes can work on tall buildings in very constricted surroundings.

Self-erecting tower cranes, also called 'folding cranes,' are mobile units that can roll onto a worksite, unfold, and go to work. They are useful for hoisting lighter loads on short notice.

Features of Modern Tower Cranes

Modern tower cranes come equipped with a variety of features that enhance their functionality and safety. Some tower cranes have self-climbing capabilities, allowing them to construct a building around themselves and raise their mast height to work on higher floors.

Control systems such as Manitowoc's Crane Control System (CCS) and Liebherr's LICCON make cranes safer and easier to use, even for less-experienced operators. Some manufacturers also offer fiber tower cranes with a fiber hoist rope that lasts approximately four times longer than steel rope, improving crane load capacity.
