Carried out with a crane rated at: 35T
Thirty tonnes is at the upper end of what our smallest cranes can do. The Liebherr LTM 1030-2.1 is rated at 35 tonnes, so it will take that load — but at short radius and on well prepared ground. If the load has to be placed more than a few metres from the machine we normally move up to the 50-tonne class, and we say so at the quoting stage.
- Maximum reach in this class: 40m
- Maximum lifting height in this class: 46m
- Machines available in this class: 3
We do not operate a machine badged as 30 tonnes — we carry out such work with a crane rated at 35 tonnes. The spare capacity is not waste: capacity falls as the distance from the slewing axis grows, so a larger machine provides the margin needed to work at radius.
Every machine is hired together with an experienced operator.
