Terex CTT 331-16 Flat Top TowerCrane Works at CPRI Center, IndiaThe Central Power Research Institute (CPRI) is using a Terex CTT
331-16 flat top tower crane to erect transmission tower components fortesting various parameters such as strength and stability. The CTT 331-16 was delivered in response to a public tender issued by the IndianPower Ministry, just two months after the opening of the new TerexCranes facility in Pune. Acting as an independent body for the testing and certification of
transmission towers throughout India, CPRI is operating the CTT 331-16 at its Transmission Tower Testing Center in Bangalore. The crane isconfigured in “R2” configuration with a 196.8 ft. (60 m) jib, 254 ft.(77.6 m) free standing height equipped with telescopic cage and 31.5 ton(28.6 t) counterweight. Mr. B. N. Dinesh Kumar, joint director, CPRI, Bangalore comments,
“Working with Terex Cranes, India, has been a good experience andeverything has run according to schedule. Terex Cranes, India, providedus with the high level of responsiveness, expertise and support that weneeded throughout the process. The CTT 331-16 is a reliable andextremely maneuverable machine and we are delighted with the way it’sperforming.” “Our team’s goal was to provide CPRI with a solution tailored to their
specific needs. Given the institute’s activity, it became clear that theywould do better to invest in a state-of-the-art machine capable of offer-ing higher levels of performance than the conventional crane type theyinitially had in mind”, said T.R. Badarinarayan, executive director, TerexCranes, India.
Terex CTT 331-16The CTT 331-16 is one of the best known tower cranes made at the
Terex Cranes facility in Fontanafredda, Italy. The CTT 331-16 has anexcellent price/performance ratio. It offers fast winch speed, large capac-ity drum, 17.6 ton (16 t) load capacity and a maximum jib length of 246ft. (75 m). The freestanding height can reach 303 ft. (92.6 m).Terex Cranes, India has employed a team of experienced and highly
trained engineering, sales, maintenance and logistics experts at facilitiescovering 3,000 sq. ft. of sales and service offices, plus a 2,000 sq. ft.spare parts center, in Pune.

annual safety meeting on Feb. 26, with 130employees from the company’s four loca-tions in attendance. The meeting presenta-tions centered on ways to improve safetyand reviewed some specific safety require-ments of the new OSHA Cranes & Derricksin Construction Final Rule 1926.1400. Steve Freckmann, Dawes general man-
ager, and Rick Peters, engineering and safe-ty manager, presented initiatives forimproving the company’s overall safety.Planned tactics include increasing the num-ber of job site safety audits and expandingthe safety committee at each of the fourDawes branches to include more field andshop employees. As a member of the ALLFamily of Companies, Dawes is emulatingthe corporate-wide effort to involve every-one in improving safety.Pete Nowak, assistant safety director,
presented “Hazard Recognition and SafetyCulture.” He discussed the negative impactof accidents on the employee, such as lossof earnings, discomfort due to injury, andloss of mobility to enjoy personal time, as well as the negative effects onthe company, such as lost time by fellow workers, lost time for repairingdamaged equipment, overhead costs, and damage to the company’s rep-
utation and EMR rating. Using a safetywheel to illustrate, Nowak recommended apreventive cycle of recognize, correct, andprevent.
Guest SpeakersGuest speaker Bob Pendowski, lineman
trainer of WE Energies, discussed powerline safety and explained proper proceduresfor working around both high- and low-voltage lines. He also explained the new20-ft. (6 m) power line setback rule (OSHA1926.1407).David Johnson, an attorney for
SmithAmundsen in Chicago and a craneaccident specialist, offered analyses ofcrane accidents and their causes and dis-cussed responsibilities of the personnelinvolved with lifting operations. He alsoreviewed OSHA’s 1926.1418 Authority toStop Operation rule, allowing crane opera-tors to stop a lift if they think it’s unsafe:“Whenever there is a concern as to safety,the operator must have the authority to stopand refuse to handle loads until a qualified
person has determined that safety has been assured.” For more information, call 800/236-5335 or visit

Manitowoc Cranes to Build First
Latin American Factory in BrazilManitowoc Cranes has announced it will build its first Latin
American factory in Brazil. The facility will be located in Passo Fundo,a city in the southern state of Rio Grande do Sul. Larry Weyers, executive vice president of Manitowoc Cranes’
Americas region, said the company intends to build different models ofcranes at the new factory.“It’s time for us to start manufacturing here,” he said. “Our philoso-
phy is always to be as close to customers as possible. That applies toeverything we do — design, manufacturing, sales and service. Over thelast few years, we have significantly enhanced our presence in LatinAmerica, and this new factory demonstrates Manitowoc’s belief in themarket potential.”
Construction of the 29,899 sq. yd. (25,000 sq m) factory is expectedto begin 60 days after final approval by local government officials. Uponcompletion, it is expected to generate more than 300 jobs. The initialfocus of the factory will be the production of mobile hydraulic cranes.Manitowoc anticipates the first cranes will come off the production lineas quickly as 15 months after construction begins. Manitowoc Cranes will also maintain its sales and service office in
Sao Paulo, Brazil. The company has been active in Brazil and the widerLatin American market for more than 20 years. It runs a regional net-work of offices and dealerships, including many staff and facilities com-mitted to its Manitowoc Crane Care customer service operation.

Crews Place First Steel Girdersfor Sakonnet River Bridge in R.I.By Jay AdamsCEG CORRESPONDENT
It is the shape of things to come, one giant girder at a time.On Jan. 19, fighting a month of high winds, storms and snow, Cardi
Corporation and its subcontractors got a clear day, and lifted the firstthree enormous steel girders by crane over the shores of Tiverton.Those girders, and about 109 more, will eventually become the bridge
decking for vehicles for the new Sakonnet River Bridge. Each girder is 80-ft. (24.3 m) long and weighs 76 tons (69 t). What is
called a “three-crane lift” joined them together to a total length of 240 ft.(73 m), going from support tower to support tower.Maxim CraneWorks’s, Providence, R.I., facility provided the cranes
for this massive project. The company has 35 locations nationwide, cov-ers the entire United States and has one facility in Guam.The cranes being used on this job, according to David White, crane
specialist, Maxim CraneWorks, are “Two Manitowocs out of Wisconsin,both Triple 9, 275-ton cranes. The third crane is a Manitowoc 2250, a300-ton machine.”The girders, bolted together, four across, will fill the 1,850 ft. (563 m)
that the deck will span between the two communities of Tiverton andPortsmouth. As they were put into place workers, spectators and com-muters — traveling nearby over the parallel rusting, corroded SakonnetRiver Bridge that it will replace — got their first glimpse of the new spanactually resembling a bridge structure.
By May 2012, or perhaps sooner, the estimated $163.7 million proj-ect — being built by Cardi Corporation of Warwick, R. I., under the aus-pices of the Rhode Island Department of Transportation — will be fullyerect. Ground first was broken for this greatly anticipated project in April
2009.
Northeast Steel of Portsmouth Underneath the massive beams stood Frank Busher of Portsmouth,
who was more than just a fascinated spectator. As he watched the tubgirders (U-shaped support steel beams) being lifted and then secured byhundreds of heavy bolts, Busher was pleased.He is the principal, along with partner Bill Nearney, of Northeast
Steel, the subcontracted company erecting the steel for CardiCorporation. “We’ve been in business since 1972,” said Busher, a few days later
from his nearby office. “We did the [$610 million] IWAY job [the newProvidence, R.I. Highway system]. And, here, every third day, we do abig lift.”The Sakonnet River Bridge presented unusual conditions for the
crane operators and crews hired by Northeast Steel to lift the beams,beyond weather conditions.“The thing that is different about this job is the heavy lifts. These are
very big girders,” said Busher. “They are ten-and-a-half feet high, four-teen-feet wide. There is a slight curve to them, and that had to be takeninto consideration. The center of gravity is off center and the girderwants to roll.” The bridge also is based on the side of huge hills on both sides, so his
workers, “Had to plateau the hill, so the hill sat level,” said Busher. Hecommended the cranes.White added, “These are fabulous machines, perfect for this type of
work. They will be used for the remainder of the project and transferredover to the Portsmouth side of the bridge for the next phase, starting inthe spring.”
Three in, 109 to GoBusher was pleased with the first “three-lift,” which took about an
hour. “There are 112 pieces of girders to be bolted together,” he said. “They
make up the four main girders. They will be 1,850-feet long from oneend to the other. There will be nine spans.”Those 112 beams will forge the decking to support an estimated
40,000 daily commuters and truck drivers who haul their vehicles fromsoutheastern Mass. (the New Bedford/Cape Cod area) over the sectionof Rte. 24 that goes over the Sakonnet River through Tiverton andPortsmouth into the East Bay and Aquidneck Island section of RhodeIsland, all the way to Newport. It is a critical transportation link between the two states and the
replacement bridge, adjacent to the old one to its immediate south, isnecessary to meet current highway design standards for shoulder width

and structural capacity.Busher and company saw 26 of the 112 girders come up by truck and
the rest by barge up the Sakonnet River. The steel originated from a com-pany called Hirschfeld Steel Industries in North Carolina. Carolina SteelGroup LLC of Greensboro, N.C, is fabricating the steel.“This is a very unusual job for us,” said Busher. “We don’t do a bridge
like this every day. But, we are a very localized business. People in NewYork do what we do, but they stay in New York. We stay in RhodeIsland. We don’t go all over the country to do steel work.” And this jobwas literally above them in the same hometown.
Other Northeast ProjectsBusher and Nearney’s company, Northeast Steel, has erected the steel
for many well-known projects in the state, including the Route 99 Bridgeover the Blackstone River in Lincoln, R.I., and most of the ramps at theDunkin’ Donuts Center (Providence’s professional athletic arena) high-way interchange on Route 95 (part of the new IWAY and the old high-way).His company usually runs with just five people in the office, includ-
ing Nearney’s son Brian, who is the next generation of steel workers. “We are typical steel erectors. We don’t have [a lot] of office person-
nel, or crane operators or iron workers. We hire out [for the work]. Wesometimes have 60 workers, sometimes, 20,” said Busher. “We have asmall number of people and do work for about 10 different contractors.But, as I said, we are a very localized business between Providence,Hartford, Connecticut and Boston.”
A Better BridgeBusher commented that the work is gratifying on many levels as this
very deep recession has hurt his firm, along with so many others in theindustry. “The building part of our business is way down,” said Busher. “We’ve
got a few bridges and a few buildings [going up], but the economy hasreally affected us.”He is glad for the work and certain that this new bridge will be a
tremendous modern marvel and improvement over the old one, whichwas constructed in 1956 and still must carry cars for another two years,despite massive rusting and corrosion.“The old bridge is in trouble,” said Busher. “It has serious problems
due to rust,” exacerbated by extremely harsh New England weather con-ditions on the ocean. “Everything is bolted today. They don’t do rivets anymore.” The new bridge will have no seams, nothing to crack open by
extremes.Haley & Aldrich completed an extensive subsurface exploration pro-
gram, provided recommendations for design of shallow and deep foun-dations, designed excavation support systems for construction of multi-ple bridge structures, and estimated costs for two bridge super structurealternatives. The company also implemented a deep foundation test pro-gram. The entire design period was compressed into 21 months to meet a
special Federal Garvey funding deadline.According to Haley & Aldrich, their client and commuter benefits
include:• Improved public safety and seismic protection• Increased transportation capacity for existing and future traffic vol-
umes
• Added bicycle and pedestrian path, separated from vehicular trafficby safety rails• Replacement bridge alternative minimizes the cumulative impacts
to the environmentThe beams will go up through summer. “I would say we will be finished with this work by August of this
year.” said Busher. So far, we are on schedule.”Despite the weather, the bridge may even finish before its anticipated
contract completion date of May 2012. Cardi is working quickly.Incentive bonuses for Cardi Corporation — which range in the tens ofthousands of dollars daily for shorter work — kept all crews extremelymotivated through even the furious snows of January.

Faltering ChicagoHarbor Lock GatesGet Badly NeededRehabilitationOn average, more than 40,000 vessels, 900,000 passengers, and
200,000 tons of cargo pass through the gates of Chicago’s Harbor Lockeach year and the lock itself opens and closes 11,500 times yearly. Butthe 72-year-old Harbor Lock on Lake Michigan at the mouth of theChicago River, owned and operated by the U.S. Army Corps ofEngineers, has been deteriorating for the past 15 years. The lock gateshave been leaking, and 10 gate breakdowns have occurred since 1991.Finally, new lock gates are being installed as part of a major overhaul tokeep all that traffic moving.According to a 2006 article at chicagobusiness.com, the deterioration
of the lock had the city worried about the potential for disrupting recre-ational and commercial boating, reducing the region’s water supply andthreatening downtown Chicago with flooding.
Crane on a BargeThe lock replacement project is being handled by general contactor
James McHugh Construction, who hired Central Contractors Service ofChicago, a member of the ALL Erection & Crane Rental Corp. Familyof Companies, to provide the lifting power to get the new gates in place.So how do you get a crane to a job site out on the water? Mount it on abarge. Central’s decades of experience in lift planning made it easier to select
the proper equipment. They recommended their 300-ton (272 t) capaci-ty Manitowoc 4100W S-3 Ringer crane with a 140-ft. (42.6 m) boom, atotal picking radius of approximately 72 ft. (21.9 m), and a capacity-enhancing ringer attachment. There were several larger Manitowoccranes to choose from, but Central felt that the 4100W S-3 Ringer wasthe most economical and would allow for better distribution of the pointloading.What does a ringer attachment do? John Martello, Central
Contractors Service general manager, explains, “When a crane must bemounted on a barge, the crane’s load charts are decreased because of thelack of a reverse force; in other words, a barge is floating on water, notset on firm land. The relative instability of a floating platform has negat-ing effect on the load weight able to be picked. Adding a ringer andpedestals to a crane distributes loading over a larger area and canincrease the lifting capacity dramatically. The ringer attachment on the4100W was utilized to better spread the weight of the crane on the sur-face of the barge. Instead of all the weight of the crane being carried onjust two tracks, the weight is distributed to 11 points. This allows pointloads to be reduced.”
It’s a Lock for CentralThe Manitowoc 4100W S-3 Ringer was erected on the barge at the
Iroquois Landing dockside facility in Chicago. The new fabricated gates,with a total weight of 180,000 lbs. (81,646 kg), were loaded up and thebarge was towed by tugboat to Navy Pier, a trip of three hours. The liftand installation of the first gate took place on Dec. 2, 2010, and the sec-ond gate was set a week later, on Dec. 9. Both procedures went withouta hitch. Central’s crane operator, Ken Derry, said that the U.S. ArmyCorps of Engineers was impressed with the crane and the operation. “USACE required that the maximum list of the barge during the gate
picks be no more than two percent. The actual list during the pick was0.00 percent. This number is amazing, considering the weight of the pickand its location on the water almost 90 feet away from the crane.” The barge and crane were to be repositioned to set the final two gates
in mid-January.

New RTC-8090 Series II FeaturesLink-Belt Pulse Operating SystemAt ConExpo 2011, Link-Belt showed the
RTC-8090 Series II, 90-ton (80 t)rough-terrain crane with the newLink-Belt Pulse total crane oper-ating system. Part of Link-BeltPulse is a new boom telescopicextend mode controller (EMC)for the pinning and latching oper-ations. Like the RCL portion ofLink-Belt Pulse, the EMC is aLink-Belt in-house creation,ensuring outstanding serviceand satisfaction, according tothe manufacturer. It interactswith the 86100’s new pinningand latching system that willbecome the standard for Link-Belt cranes with this type of boomextend system — the same system found in Link-Belt’s large roughterrain and truck cranes as well as the new ATC-3275. For cranes soequipped, these changes standardize Link-Belt’s product line on one pin-ning and latching system for one crane operating system. The RTC-8090 Series II features a 38 to 140-ft. (11.6 to 42.7 m), five-
section boom. It has a maximum tip height of 238 ft. (72.6 m) with theadditional two 16 ft. (4.9 m) lattice inserts installed between the boomhead and the optional 35 to 58-ft. (10.7 to 17.7 m) bi-folding lattice. Allattachment combinations have offset positions of 2, 15, 30, and 45degrees. Unlike other cranes with latching booms, the 8090 has nodeducts in the lift chart for telescoping a load. The design incorporates Link-Belt’s standard Teflon wear pucks so
the boom requires no grease. The single cylinder design allows huge liftcapacities while yielding a light working weight. The boom, combinedwith removable, modular counterweights, helps reduce the transportweight to under 90,000 lbs. (40,823.3 kg).Powering the RTC-8090 Series II is the 225-hp (167.8 kW)
Caterpillar C6.6 engine. A direct-mount powershift transmissionbrings the power to the wheels. It has six forward and sixreverse speeds. A switch in the operator’s cab controls the foursteering modes: two-wheel front, two-wheel rear, four-wheeland crab.The RTC-8090 uses an automotive style, four-link sus-
pension. The fully independent rear suspension reducesbouncing and improves handling both on and off the road. For aneven better ride, Link-Belt’s patented Hydro-gas Ride suspension is
available as an option. This system’s charged accumulator serves as ashock absorber improving carrier stability. The winches deliver 16,880 lbs. (7,656.6 kg) of line pull and 341 fpm
(104 m/min) of line speed. Spooled onto the winch drum is a durable0.75-in. (19 mm) diameter four strand, low torque wire rope. Rotationresistant rope is available as an option.Other features of the RTC-8090 Series II include:• Six points of access to the carrier deck
• Large, swing-out engine hood doors for easy service• The CALC (Confined Area Lifting Capacities) system• Lightweight and durable steel outrigger pontoons• Full deck steel fenders• Pre-paint• Supported 24/7 by Link-Belt Preferred includingonline manuals, literature, a ground bearing calcula-
tor, and 3D Lift PlanFor more information, visitwww.linkbelt.com.
