Release date: February 6, 2008

February 6, 2008 - The right crane can do the lifting, even in a difficult spot. But it takes people-seasoned crane experts-to figure out the "how." That's why the general contractor for a power plant with an outage called ALL Crane Rental of Pennsylvania to help them retube a major boiler to restore power at a power plant in Masontown, Pennsylvania.

The job entailed lifting out the old boiler parts and lowering the new ones, but there was a catch. The only place to put the 500-ton Liebherr hydraulic truck crane for access to the boiler was in a very tight space, a deep hole immediately adjacent to the building. Nine months in the planning, the difficult lift finally took place in October 2007. It took more than a week to assemble the crane (with the assistance of a 130-ton RT crane), and the jib had to be landed onto a fifth-floor level of the building and assembled there. A Y-guy boom suspension superlift attachment provided extra capacity.

Crane Specifics

o Liebherr model LTM1400-7.1, 500 ton

o 186-ft. boom, 151-ft. luffing jib

o Y-guy boom suspension superlift attachment
