The CMB, which is an abbreviation for Cooperativa Muratori e Braccianti di Carpi, is an Italian contractor who has put two robust Potain tower cranes in commission to construct the Hadid Tower.
Designed by Zaha Hadid, the Hadid Tower is a result of her desire of a structure that defies the technocratic engineering; a tower that actually reimagines curves. This 44-floor tower is one of the triads, which are also referred to as “square of three towers.” This tower is all set to symbolize the plush residential and commercial developments on the historical trade fair ground in Milan.
In 2014, the two MDT 308A cranes were erected; and since then, the two machines have climbed at the rate of 4 meters every month. Now, in 2016, these two constructive machines are all set to reach their final height of 210 meters. The building site’s supervisor, Alfio Musumeci, said: “The company chose the MDT 308A cranes for their proven reliability and performance which help to ensure projects run smoothly.”
He stated that the Potain cranes were among the efficient tools that were needed to build a high-rise structure. He told the press that these cranes are engineered to carry heavy loads over great distances easily; and this, too, represented one of their benefits and reasons to be used in the project. The MDT 308A is a tower crane that has the capability to provide a maximum jib length of up to 70 meters and a tip load of close to 2.9 tonnes.
