Crane Operators Are Sky-High Stars in N.Y. Construction Boom From high in the sky, he can see the sun light up Manhattan all the way to the harbor and the Statue of Liberty. He wraps his fingers around two joysticks to bring the crane alive. Gambardella, 49, is at the helm of one of the giant tower cranes sprouting across the city, a prime force in a building boom that is changing New York’s skyline. It can be dangerous work — a fact hammered home by several deadly accidents in recent years. “Is it a thrill? I love it. I love it. I absolutely love it,” he said after climbing from the translucent fishbowl of his control cab, atop what will be a 65-story apartment tower. “But you need to have a little more nerve than the average human being, and be a little crazy.” New York is enjoying a construction bonanza following a recession that choked new investment for years. The city has issued permits for about $35 billion worth of both residential and commercial construction in the past year. Fifty-five tower cranes and 26 smaller, “crawler” cranes are now in use, licensed by the city — about twice as many as two years ago, according to the Department of Buildings. Standing on the sidewalk, it is hard not to be awed by, and a little frightened of, the supertall cranes hoisting loads of steel into the sky. In 2008, a 250-ft. (76.2 m) -tall tower crane collapsed on Manhattan’s East Side, obliterating a building below as it fell. Seven people died. Just two months later, two workers were killed when a 200-ft. (60.96 m) -tall crane fell over and struck an apartment building across the street. Last year, seven people were injured when an air-conditioning unit weighing tons came untethered from a crane, plunging 28 stories to Madison Avenue. More recently, one of the city’s crawler cranes toppled in gusty winds on Feb. 5, killing a pedestrian. That accident has again brought attention to crane safety. Last year, the city hired 50 new construction inspectors for a total of about 450. People’s lives depend on crane precision, because “you can’t have anything falling out of the sky,” said Bobby Cipriano, a veteran operator in charge of crane safety and maintenance at the $4.5 billion Brookfield Property Group development, called Manhattan West, where Gambardella works. “Tower cranes are intimidating, and you have a tremendous responsibility,” Cipriano said. Before the crane moves, his dawn routine includes turning on the generator that powers the electric crane and inspecting cables attached to the boom. He also checks the radio equipment that allows the operator to contact crew members on the ground. Hoisting loads is a matter of trust. From the sky, the men on the ground look like ants, preparing loads the operator hoists skyward on a cable but cannot always see. “You can feel it. You can feel when it comes up and the signalman says, ‘Great, that was nice,’” said Cipriano. “There shouldn’t be any ‘Oh, my God’ moments,” Gambardella added. What none of them trusts is the wind.
By Verena Dobnik ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK (AP) Tommy Gambardella is a master of New York’s construction universe. Each morning before dawn, he rides an elevator more than 50 stories up the side of a skyscraper growing on Manhattan’s West Side. Then, he steps out onto a narrow walkway with a drop-dead view of the city below and mounts some spiral steps into the glass control cab of a tower crane. There, he’s alone, in silence..
AP photo Fifty-five tower cranes and 26 smaller crawler cranes are now in use, licensed by the city — about twice as many as two years ago. 11
When it reaches 30 mph, “you’re getting blown around, knocked around,” said Gambardella. “It’s very difficult to control the crane, and the load.” All work stops. When it comes to spectacular New York buildings, Cipriano, 57, of Colts Neck, N.J., said he’s seen it all. He’s manned cranes for the new New York Times building, Goldman Sachs’ downtown headquarters and the revitalized Times Square. But his proudest job was working on One World Trade Center, the 104-story skyscraper that replaced the twin towers decimated in the Sept. 11 attacks. He was part of a crew that slid several cranes on rails up the side of the building to the top. “It’s gratifying. You drive down the road and you can say, ‘I was up there. That’s mine. I jacked the crane on that building,’” said Cipriano, his eyes lighting up. “I don’t think I would want to do anything else.” He remembered one dark night when his crew was installing a crane, “and the Empire State Building is behind you, lit up in different colors, and Madison Square Garden. It’s like being in a plane, and coming in for an approach and at night. It’s really cool.” At Manhattan West, which will include two new office towers, retail, a hotel, rooftop gardens, restaurants and a public park, Gambardella puts in as much as 12 hours a day. Sometimes the Tomkins Cove, New York, resident is in the cabin for five-hour stretches with no break. Not everyone is fit for the precarious work. “You’ve got to have a certain disposition — everything calm, no yelling, no screaming,” says Gambardella.

Tappan Zee ‘Gets a Lift’ From New Manitowoc MLC300 With VPC MAX
The new 2016 MLC300 with the VPC MAX lift enhancer option works on the Tappan Zee Bridge.
The new MLC300 crane design was promoted at ConExpo.
The crane will be moved to different positions on the bridge deck, disassembled, lowered onto a barge with the LCL (left coast lifter) and repositioned on the Westchester side for similar applications.
The crane is positioned on a leveling platform, on the Nyack side of the new north span.
The standard MLC300 without the VPC MAX attachment has a fully extended tail swing of 28 ft. 2 in. (8.6 m). The overall track footprint remains the same.
With the VPC MAX attachment, the older style wagon is replaced by the counterweight being able to fully extend to a tail swing of 52 ft. 10 in. (16.1 m) therefore increasing the load moment.
Prefabricated deck sections will be unloaded from a barge north of the span the crane is resting on. The crane rotates 180 degrees and places the sections on the new south span. 13
The MLC300 pulls out sections of the old Tappan Zee Bridge span at night, installs piles for reinforced concrete approach supports and reinstalls the spans.

Wood’s CRW Open House Features Crane Demos, Skills Competition
W
possible to operate 360 degrees, which gives it a greater radius compared with a fixed telehandler. The Merlo 120.10 HM also caught the eye of attendees because of its massive maximum load capacity: 26,500 lbs. The lift capacity at lift height is 11,000 lbs. and at reach it is 6,100 lbs. The Samson KZ-100 synthetic crane hoist line attracted attention as well. Attendees were pleased when they learned that existing cranes can be retrofitted with the KZ-100. The rope’s design incorporates a proprietary coating to mitigate UV degradation and is 80 percent lighter at similar strengths and its braided, torque-neutral construction significantly reduces load spin. Maeda mini-cranes drew a crowd as John Carpenter, sales manager of Maeda USA, showed attendees how easy it is to set up the crane from its folded position. The MC285-2 has a slim 30-in. body and is ideal for fitting inside garages, warehouses, service elevators and many other locations. The Link-Belt HTC-86110 made its debut last year at CraneFest in Lexington, Ky., and it was prominently displayed during the Wood’s CRW open house. The HTC-86110 features a 164-ft. (50 m) main boom that outreaches the truck crane competition. The operator’s cab includes power tilt from 0 to 20 degrees along with a pull-out “cabwalk” for easy entry. For nighttime shifts, there are four high intensity work lights mounted to the top of the cab. Tyler Mayo of BGM Inc. in Hardwick, Vt., won the crane competition, which earned him $500 and a paid trip to compete in the finals at the ICUEE show in 2017. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.) CQ
ood’s CRW held an open house April 1 at its Carlisle, Pa., facility. The event featured crane demos, presentations, door prizes and food as well as a crane skills competition presented by the Crane Institute Certification’s Cranes 101. Vendors in attendance were Link-Belt, National Crane, Samson Rope, Volvo Financial, Peterbilt, Shuttlelift, Maeda, Merlo and A-1A software. Featured pieces of equipment included Maeda USA minicrawler cranes, Merlo telehandlers, Link-Belt cranes and Samson Ropes. Merlo telehandlers were a big hit during the event; the Roto makes it
Tom Liegey (L), general superintendent, and his brother, Dave Liegey, foreman, both of Glenn O. Hawbaker, came from State College, Pa., to attend the event.
The Link-Belt HTC-86110 was a prominent crane on display during the open house.
The Samson KZ 100 is a synthetic rope for mobile cranes. Its design incorporates a proprietary coating to mitigate UV degradation and is 80 percent lighter at similar strengths and its braided, torqueneutral construction significantly reduces load spin.
Featured items during the event included the Merlo Roto 45.21 MCSS and the Merlo 120.10HM. 14

Maeda Mini-Crane Goes to Work Where Tower Crane Can’t Reach A Maeda MC285 was utilized by a glass and curtain wall company to hoist and install unitized glass curtain wall panels on the exterior of AMEGY Bank’s new Houston headquarters. The contractor was able to use conventional equipment to install unitized curtain glass panels in most areas of the 25 story building and parking garage structure, however, panels on the facade of the parking garage structure were larger and heavier than could be handled safely with their smaller capacity equipment. Also the installation area could not be reached by the existing tower crane on site. The installers were able to speed up the installation of the panels using the MC285. The contractor was using conventional equipment, which would hoist one panel from a floor or two below and then set them into place, move the equipment, then set another panel. This process was time consuming and cumbersome. With the MC285 set up in one position, up to six panels could be set in sequence without a machine move. When the next section of panels was installed, repositioning the
MC285 could be done in minutes, saving time for the contractor. Access to the top deck of the parking garage structure was easy with the MC285 traveling on rubber tracks up to the top level, much like a vehicle would drive up into a parking garage. At 4 ft. 10 in. (1.2 m 25 cm) high, there were no overhead height concerns when traveling in the garage. Overall weight of the MC285 of 4,325 lbs. (1,961.8 kg) meant that it could travel and be set up in various jobsite areas without the concerns and issues of much heavier conventional equipment. Narrow width of 30 in. (76.2 cm) let the MC285 access tight areas and maneuver in close quarters if needed. Safety was a primary concern for the contractor. The MC285’s moment limiter safety system with load charts programmed in, combined with Maeda’s outrigger interlock safety system, made hoisting panels of various weights from floors below safe and efficient for the operator. See AMEGY page 18
The installers were able to speed up the installation of the panels using the MC285.

erecting steel. On this project, the tower crane could not reach the areas that the curtain wall was being installed, so the MC285 was called in to handle the task. Maeda mini-cranes are in use daily throughout the western hemisphere on a variety of projects, many in the high-rise commercial sector. When the tower crane is busy or unavailable, Maeda mini-cranes are often the cost effective and safe alternative to waiting for the tower crane.

The MC285 stops hoisting function if the crane’s capacities are exceeded. Equipped with anti-2-block safety device at the boom tip, emergency stop buttons at both ends, and other integral visual and audible alarms, Maeda mini-cranes are equipped with safety features. Tower crane utilization is critical on high-rise projects. The MC285 excels on job sites where the tower crane can’t reach, or is busy doing other tasks for various contractors. Maeda’s versatile MC line also includes the longer boom and capacity MC305 and MC405 which, along with the MC285, have been used extensively to free up tower cranes on busy job sites to do other work. Crews using the MC’s can operate independently of the tower crane, for such tasks as glass and curtain wall installation, setting rebar and 18

Terex AC 700 Terrain Crane Helps Erect Tower Crane in Kornwestheim A compact design and powerful performance characteristics — this is the combination that makes the AC all terrain crane series by Terex the best choice when it comes to work sites with limited space. This was the case when Wiesbauer GmbH & Co. KG erected a tower crane at a work site in the Swabian town of Kornwestheim, Germany, a project for which the company used its brand new Terex AC 700 crane. The Bietigheim-Bissingen-based crane service provider carried out the project on behalf of the Mörfelden-Walldorf branch office of construction company Trinac GmbH, which is building a new office building for the Wüstenrot bank in Kornwestheim. The decision to use the latest acquisition in Wiesbauer’s fleet for the project was not only based on the AC 700 crane’s technical characteristics, but also on logistical considerations. “We had the crane stationed at our headquarters in BietigheimBissingen precisely at the right time, and Bietigheim-Bissingen is only an hour away from the work site in Kornwestheim,” said Thomas Wiesbauer general manager, who manages the company together with his brother Jochen. This meant that traveling to the site with the AC 700 crane was relatively easy, requiring only the appropriate travel permit and what in Germany is referred to as a “BF-3 third-generation escort vehicle.” In addition, the unit was accompanied by an assist crane and four trucks.
For example, the lift for the largest load, i.e., the 22.5 ton (20.5 t) slewing unit, required a hook height of 230 ft. and a radius of 78.74 ft. (24 m). Meanwhile, jib unit 1 was slightly less heavy at exactly 22 tons (20 t). However, its overall length of 131 ft. (40 m) made it much more difficult to handle, requiring it to be perfectly balanced. The lift for this unit required a hook height of 230 ft. as well. In contrast, the hook height when lifting jib section two was slightly lower at 216.53 ft. (66 m). And although this 9.4 ton (8.5 t) component was considerably lighter than the first jib section, it was also longer at 148 ft. (45 m). In addition, the corresponding lift was performed with a maximum radius of up to 131 ft. “When lifting loads with these types of dimensions, it’s not enough to just rely on the crane operator’s expert touch. You also need a crane with extraordinary precision. And with its easy-to-use and tremendously responsive controls, the AC 700 proved to be the perfect machine for the job,” said crane operator Günther Mühleck. Project Duration — Five Days This was one of the important advantages that enabled the Wiesbauer team to complete the job on schedule within the required time frame of five days, which included setting up and disassembling the AC 700 crane. “Of course, we’d already assumed that we wouldn’t be running into any problems — after all, we know exactly what the Terex cranes in this series are capable of,” said Thomas Wiesbauer, who is more than satisfied with the debut of his company’s latest acquisition. For more information, visit www.terex.com and www.wiesbauerkrane.de. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)
Setup Time — Five Hours Just like the trip, setting up the AC 700 crane at the work site took a short time: The seven-person Wiesbauer team, assisted by two Trinac employees, required only five hours to do so despite the tight space conditions. “Like every other Terex crane, this unit was clearly designed with ease of assembly in mind, which is crucial to our ability to deliver when it comes to short assembly and disassembly times. In addition, this ease of assembly also plays an important role in the outstanding cost effectiveness of the model, as it makes us more competitive,” said Jochen Wiesbauer, who speaks from experience — the AC 700 crane he is talking about is the fifth crane in the series in his company already.
Hook Height — 70 Meters In order to reach the lifting height of up to 230 ft. (70 m) required to erect the tower crane, the Wiesbauer assembly technicians configured the Terex AC 700 crane with an LF main boom extension measuring 86.6 ft. (26.40 m), an SSL system with a 30 degree offset, and 110.23 tons (100 t) of counterweight. Once set up this way, the AC 700 crane was prepared to lift all of the tower crane’s components. These components included not only a large number of relatively lightweight and compact mast sections, The decision to use the latest acquisition in Wiesbauer’s fleet for the project was but also significantly more unwieldy elements, such as not only based on the AC 700 crane’s technical characteristics, but also on logisthe slewing unit, the two-piece jib, and the counter jib. tical considerations. 19

Manitowoc Introduces New Grove GMK4100L-1 All-Terrain Taxi Crane Manitowoc has introduced a new Grove all-terrain crane for the global market. As with other recent Grove launches, the crane offers unique innovations and class-leading capabilities in the taxi (road travelling) category, according to the company. The four-axle Grove GMK4100L-1’s load charts and its compact design makes it easy to access and maneuver on the narrowest of job sites. The new 110-ton (100 t) capacity crane replaces the GMK4100L and is part of a new generation of Grove taxi cranes. Grove was the first manufacturer to produce a 110-ton capacity crane on four axles when it introduced the GMK4100L. The new GMK4100L-1 has some notable improvements. According to the manufacturer, the GMK4100L-1 offers the best load charts in this class in its maximum counterweight configuration, but also in its most common taxi configuration with a weight of less than 13.2 tons (12 t) per axle — a common axle load limit in many countries. Compared with the GMK4100L, the new GMK4100L-1 delivers 6.9 percent better load charts overall when in its 29-ton (26.2 t) maximum counterweight configuration. In the taxi configuration with a 7.4-ton (6.7 t) counterweight, the GMK4100L-1 has an increase of 9.3 percent improved performance, according to the company. It can be operated with the maximum roadable 22-ton (19.9 t) counterweight for up to 18 tons (16.5 t) per axle. Customers in North America also will benefit from the crane’s fully removable counterweight — which reduces the basic crane’s gross vehicle weight to the lowest level in the four-axle category for a 110-ton rated machine with a 197 ft. (60 m) boom. Boosting the crane’s overall reach is a 59 ft. (18 m) telescopic swing-away jib, which can be extended with an 26 ft. (8 m) boom extension for a total jib length of 85 ft. (26 m). The telescopic swing-away jib offers an improved offset of 0 to 45 degrees. Jens Ennen, senior vice president all-terrain and truck-mounted cranes at Manitowoc, said the new GMK4100L1 is the result of improvements and innovations developed at the factory in Wilhelmshaven, Germany, where the crane is built. “We have focused strongly on bringing superior reliability, return on investment, ease of transportation, user friendliness and capacity to this crane,” he said. “With class-leading load charts and specifications, the new GMK4100L-1 is a highly mobile crane that is suitable for use on job sites around the world. The GMK4100L exceeded our expectations in both performance and reliability so we are expecting the GMK4100L-1 to continue this tradition.” The GMK4100L-1 is more compact than its predecessor, making it easier to access nar-
row job sites. With 14-in. (35.5 cm) tires, the crane has an 8.4 ft. (2.55 m) width versus the 9 ft. (2.75 m) of the GMK4100L. Overall it also is 1.6 ft. (0.5 m) shorter, making it more maneuverable on congested job sites. The GMK4100L-1 is powered by a single engine, reducing the weight of the crane and allowing it to carry more counterweight, which improves lifting ability. The Tier IV Final/EUROMOT 4 MercedesBenz OM470LA is a six-cylinder diesel engine with a 320 kW rating at 1,700 rpm and a maximum torque of 2,100 Nm at 1,300 rpm. The crane also is available with an equivalent Tier III engine. Better profitability for users is available through the inclusion of the fuel saver function on the Tier IV Final/EUROMOT 4 engine. The GMK4100L-1 also has Manitowoc’s new crane control system (CCS) and the new boom configurator mode. The standardized CCS is a user-friendly interface that Manitowoc is featuring on all new crane models. The CCS components and operating software have been specifically designed, developed and tested by Manitowoc engineering and innovation teams worldwide to ensure the highest reliability standards. The highly intuitive boom configurator mode makes it quick and easy to select the optimum boom position for a specific lift, according to the company. The operator inputs the lift parameters such as radius, load or boom length to be moved and the system calculates the best boom configuration. Once the operator selects the preferred option, the boom automatically extends to the required length. The look of the crane also has been improved with a facelift that includes a new ergonomic carrier cab. Trademark features such as the TWIN-LOCK boom pinning system, MEGAFORM boom shaping and MEGATRAK independent active suspension, are all included in the new GMK4100L-1. Deliveries of the new GMK4100L-1 will start in quarter three 2016. For more information, visit www.manitowoccranes.com.

DICA’s Receives Patent for SafetyTech Outrigger Pads With TuffGrip Handles DICA has added a fourth patent to its SafetyTech outrigger pads. The most recent U.S. patent, issued in February 2016 is for C- or U-shaped TuffGrip handles used with any size or shape of SafetyTech pad. “DICA’s SafetyTech products are designed to be strong and unbreakable, delivering the consistent engineered performance that our customers and their crews rely on every day. We are very happy to have received this new patent, which is reflective of the thinking, design and engineering our team puts into every DICA product,” said Kris Koberg, CEO. The TuffGrip handle system was introduced in 2011 to help improve the long-term durability of DICA outrigger pad products and provide an increased level of ergonomic safety for operators handling SafetyTech outrigger pads, according to the company. Handle length is a small but important example of the innovative thinking in DICA’s TuffGrip handle design. Handle length is specifically designed to encourage proper lifting that requires bending and lifting with the legs. The handle length also helps minimize trip hazards
on the job site and, when being carried, reduces the “flopping around” of the pad common with excessively long handles, according to the company. According to the manufacturer, recessed handles are a key innovation on all round SafetyTech outrigger pads. The design allows for easy rolling of larger pads, which reduces lifting stress and the potential for back injuries. Lastly, the TuffGrip handle material itself is strong, yet comfortable, engineered thermoplastic. It’s backed by DICA’s unbreakable guarantee and resistant to UV degradation and chemical or water corrosion. In addition to this newest United States patent, DICA also holds two other United States patents and one Canadian patent for the seating, insertion and anchorage methods used for TuffGrip handles on various SafetyTech products. The first of these patents was received in 2013, and additional patents are currently pending in both the United States and Canada.
