Just one look from above is enough to see the biggest challenge presented by the construction site in Medina: there鈥檚 not a lot of space. High-traffic roads and tall neighbouring buildings required crane operations to be planned with precision, something which Liebherr Tower Crane Solutions closely supported.

With its maximum jib length of 70 metres and a lifting capacity of up to 12 tonnes, the NC-B 12-70 is reliable, economic, and safe in its work. In addition, the tower crane also offers a jib head load capacity of 2,000 kg at maximum jib. These technical features make the crane an optimal solution for high-performance lifts in densely built-up metropolitan areas.

It was Liebherr鈥檚 professional approach and fast execution of measures that impressed customer 鈥淢OBCO for Construction and Civil Works鈥�, whose latest building project, the 鈥淪afiyyah Museum and Park鈥� is underway in the centre of Medina. A museum, shops, caf茅s, and a public garden complete with palm trees will move in following completion.

The NC-B concept is optimised for transport and assembly. Five trucks deliver all elements of the slewing part with 70 m jib length to site quickly and easily. Standard-sized containers can be used for transport. Once on site, assembly is straightforward. The central unit with slewing platform and connection element only requires one lift. A weight reduction of the central unit is also possible: If needed, the slewing platform, control cabinet and cabin can be installed separately to meet the assembly crane鈥檚 performance capacity.

Established technologies from Liebherr鈥檚 existing Flat-Top series further accelerate assembly. The LiConnect quick connection system enables the jib to be assembled quickly and safely in five-metre sections.
