Actually, that picture was taken of one of my companies jobsites. (Graycor Industrial) That is the Mammoet PTC and we brought that crane in to make a couple of hoists. Believe it or not, the concrete foundation that was put in for that crane was still green concrete when we demobilized the crane and tore out the concrete. The PTC was hoisting over live gas lines and at some pretty impressive radii. That job was completed almost a year and a half ago if not 2 years. If was the first brand new Coke Battery that was built in the United States in the last 30 years(if my memory serves correct). The lifts consisted of a roughly 200t Larry Car, a 240t Coke Transfer Car (CTC), and a 350t Pusher car. We have a model of the PTC in one of our offices and that model is pretty amazing. It took one of our guys over a week to build.
