guess whats going here? (obviously deeper than in this picture probably be like 50-60feet right now)





a Manitowoc 16000!

"One of two things will happen with the 888 Crane. It will either be dismantled around the 2nd week of July and brought out for storage until such time as it can be erected in Phase 2 (Former DB building area). Or, it will be tracked over to the north east corner of the site and work from there.

The steel erector is bringing in a monster 16000 crane in mid-July and it will need the area currently occupied by the 888.

In terms of depth, in Phase one the 888 is sitting pretty much at the subgrade level, meaning slab will be poured at that height. The deeper excavation is pretty clearly defined now by rock walls on the sides.

Over in Phase 2 there will be similar excavations. Main slab level approx 55' below street level with a deeper portion another 25' down."

Will the 18000 have work after its finished here, or will Lomma just sell it?

I will try my best to get the 18000 breakdown. The PC800 will be leaving next week, the machine is too big for the job, because of the attachment size. A few 345's will take its spot with one brand new 345 they already have there and two 330's.
