our commitment to providing solutions that cater to complex urban construction projects.” Installed in Q2 of 2024,
the LR213s are all currently freestanding at 45m with jib lengths ranging between 44.5m and 55m. Based on site progression, four of the five luffers will be externally climbed to reach heights of 145m and 190m. Equipped with a 55kW hoisting winch with a drum capacity of 880m, the cranes lift at a maximum speed up to 104 metres per minute. “The LR213 has been selected to meet the specific requirements of the project’s contractor while avoiding collision and overfly of surrounding properties, making it ideal for high-rise construction in densely populated areas,” says Hasan. The same model has helped in the development of similar projects across the UAE. The 14 tonne model offers great lifting capacities and flexibility, facilitating the efficient handling of heavy materials and components, streamlining the construction process and enhancing site safety.
