The UWSP Science Building project stands out for more than just its roofing system—it required the use of a tower crane, adding a unique element to the job.

Project Details

  • A tower crane was rented from a company out of Milwaukee, with a certified crane operator running the equipment by remote control. Watching the crane in action was a highlight for the crew, as the system builds itself in sections and requires careful setup.
  • Due to the crane’s size and weight, extra coordination was needed for staging, sewer support, and electrical connections before operation could begin.
  • The project team included Greg, Dave, and Aaron who played key roles in managing this complex setup.

Unique Element

The crane itself became a centerpiece of the project. Operated by a single certified operator, it showcased how specialized equipment and experienced partners can make even the most challenging logistics possible.
