Wiesbauer GmbH & Co. KG, a large crane and heavy haulage company based in southern Germany, added a new Liebherr LTM 1650-8.1 mobile crane to its fleet last summer. The crane was delivered with both versions of the telescopic equipment with lengths of 50 and 80 metres. The first deployment with the long T5 boom took place recently. The crane lifted large construction modules for a future school onto the flat roof of a clinic building.

For many years, the construction site of an international research facility in Darmstadt has witnessed mobile and crawler cranes being operated by Riga Mainz GmbH & Co. KG, a company specialising in crane and transport work. Now, mighty media bridges soaring some 20 metres into the air are being constructed around a building. Because of the limited crane parking space immediately adjacent to a building wall, the first module could only be lifted with the Liebherr LTM 1650-8.1

Following the purchase of the land in June, the ground-breaking ceremony has now taken place on the Ehingen-Berg industrial estate: Liebherr will begin construction of a customer centre and associated dispatch wing on the 54-hectare site.
