The 18m Spider Boom is a light-weight machine, subject to a load of 5 tonnes in comparison to a placing boom loading of 30 tonnes. It is therefore easily moved around site with the aid of a tower crane or tele handler, making it perfect for reaching into tight corners where the mobile booms cannot. In previous projects, the 3-section hydraulic spider boom has been able to eliminate the need of extra static lines and in turn, reducing labour costs and increasing efficiency on a concrete pour. With this machine there are endless possibilities where it can facilitate the pouring of concrete, we have used it on basement slab pours, in-situ deck pours, slip forms and even on railway projects. In every instance it has enhanced the speed of the pour and more importantly increased the safely and welfare of the concrete crews as it has removed the need to manual drag groundlines around the pour area.
