Tower cranes at a glance
- Typical capacity: varies widely by model and configuration; maximum capacity is close to the mast and drops along the jib, so the load at the far end of the jib is much lower
- Typical reach: jib lengths commonly from roughly 100 to over 250 feet, with height set by the mast and any tie-ins to the building
- Setup & transport: delivered in sections on multiple trucks, erected on an engineered foundation with a mobile assist crane, and dismantled the same way at the end of the project
Good fits: mid- and high-rise residential, office, and hotel structures; concrete, rebar, formwork, and steel on multi-story buildings; tight urban sites with little room for a mobile crane; projects needing a crane on site daily for many months.
Those are headline figures; capacity drops sharply as the load moves farther from the crane, so the crane company sizes it from its load charts using your weight, distances, and site.
Planning a lift in Scottsdale
- HOAs and gated communities: Many Scottsdale neighborhoods have HOA rules, work-hour limits, and guard gates. Arrange gate access and check HOA rules before the crane is scheduled.
- Finished surfaces: Pavers, decorative driveways, and landscaping often need mats or cribbing under the outriggers. Point them out so the crane company can protect them.
- Near Scottsdale Airport and Old Town: Cranes near the Airpark may need advance FAA notice depending on height. Old Town street setups generally need a right-of-way permit from the City of Scottsdale.
