About this file
This document contains questions and answers regarding a federal solicitation for four 50-ton mobile lift cranes. The cranes must have driven by wire capability, fail safe braking mechanisms, and be able to operate in all local weather conditions. Key specifications include a spreader attachment that can clear stacked concrete mats approximately 40,000 pounds and measuring 4 feet by 25 feet. The cranes will pick up precast stacks at a plant and deliver them to a casting yard in rows by casting date. Dimensions such as a preferred crane width of 32 feet and hook height of 20 feet are requested. The cranes will be shipped to and erected at a location in Drummonds, Tennessee by the bidder. While staggered shipping is acceptable, all four cranes must be on-site and operational by the preferred delivery date of before April 2021.
