Ireland's Leading Reinforced Concrete Structure Specialist M.R. Concrete has commissioned the first use of a new generation of hydraulic luffing crane on a construction site. The Potain MRH 175 is ideal for high-rise building projects or sites where there are space constraints. The MRH 175 delivers an out-of-service radius of 10 metres regardless of jib length and this is exactly the type of crane needed for this project. crane hire
Luffing the crane from horizontal to vertical is efficient, taking less than two minutes, delivering optimum productivity on the job site. The maximum line speed is 215 m per minute when working with the high-performance 75HPL25 hoist.
The Project consisted of lifting floors, concrete frames, columns, stairs for an 18 story Highrise in Glasgow, Scotland. The crane was purchased through Irish crane supplier Irlequip based in Co. Westmeath with support from Manitowoc UK. M.R Concrete has been procuring equipment from Irlequip for over 16 years. crane hire
"“We were very impressed with the erection and the speed of the crane in service – it’s quick and efficient,” said Matthew Rodden, managing director of MR Concrete. “It performs well and does everything we want it to do, operating much quicker than some other luffers.”
M.R. Concrete is based in Donegal, Ireland but operates throughout the UK and Ireland where construction jobs are becoming more restricted with regard to operating space making the MRH 175 an ideal addition to M.R. Concrete's crane fleet.
M.R. Concrete has developed its operational and management systems to become recognized as a leading Civil Engineering Contractor, specializing in Reinforced Concrete substructure and superstructure work. crane hire
