There are two cranes currently based on the site, located East and west sides in order to serve the two towers onsite, alongside the new adjacent building below. The crane arm is positioned in an obtuse angle as the square perimeter of the site is rather narrow. This means there are open roads surrounds the site which the crane cannot overhang.
Before the cranes could be setup, and application was approved by Network Rail as the crane is situation near the Hove railway track. If the machinery were to fall over in any circumstance, it ha the length to land and damage there railway tracks.
Both two cranes are sunken into the foundation of the site and bolted into place, in order to allow the crane to carry have loads. when RG are finished with the cranes, and no longer serve a purpose, the cranes will be unbolted and removed. the leftover area where the crane used to be will then get filled in by concrete.
