With a 28USt capacity, 106’ boom and 30’-47’ jib, they have found the Terex BT28106 to be the crane for them. It offers a modular, dual-control console for operation from either side of the crane, work area definition, and high-performance hydraulics. Carl Benson, Fleet Manager said “the boom length, and jib length, fits our roofing needs’ ‘the rapid mobility of a boom truck makes things a lot easier and we don’t have to worry about transportation or set-up and take-down time.”
The crane’s first job will be a roofing at the Wegmans Supermarket in Fairmount NY.
