Think it is on site for 3 to 4 days I am hoping to have a chat with the op at sometime today, but I am rather busy at work, all being well will have more info later on.

Have managed to get a few photos of the crane, this is the only trouble when you are at work and the big hitters are on site, you have to carry on with the job you are paid to do, but at the same time you want to get some photos, oh well such is life. Have managed to get some (in my own time I might add)

Here is the machine at the site






The beams it is lifting (16 in total)






And this is where they are being placed






Extra ballast for largest beam 57tonne at 40m radius




A few shots taken with 10mm fisheye lens








Hope you like

Steve.
