Speaking of a work of level. At the Central Park yard in Ostend, D'hoore Construct is building towering apartment buildings with a view of the sea and the city's skyline. "A piece of New York in Ostend," it sounds. Next to the buildings, you see tower cranes from Verhelst Machines gleaming. Two of them, the ones around the Central Park Tower, were anchored and raised last month - just in time for Open Construction Day. It provided an impressive sight!
The Central Park Tower on Oosteroever will have no fewer than 22 floors. And to build that high, you naturally need high tower cranes. Our specialty! With an LTM1500-8.1 mobile crane with tension, and with a 77-meter movable jib, we reach a height of 122 meters: not an unnecessary luxury for such jobs.
First, we anchored both tower cranes on the 13th and 14th floors of the Central Park Tower. Then the Wolff 7032.12 was raised by 36 meters to 104.6 meters under the hook, followed by the Wolff 7534.16, which was raised by 31.5 meters to 97.5 meters under the hook. All just in time for Open Construction Day.
