If you are a student of nor
mal curiosity, you're prob
ably wondering how they got
the big crane on top of Twin
rowers, ana how they are go
lng to get it down.
Here's the answer. Accord
lng to Mickey Landers, con
struction superintendent for
the project, the crane has
gone to the top of the towers
through a small five by five
foot hole cut in each floor of
the dormitory. He said that
the 28 ton tower for the crane
is 65 feet or four stories high.
When they first began using
the crane for lifting materi
als, its base was in the base
ment, and as construction pro
gressed the crane was lifted
two stories at a time by hy
draulic Jacks, said Landers.

He added that each time the
crane was lifted the operation
only took approximately two
hours.
When the crane on the south
tower had served its purpose,
its tower was let down in
sections through the same
hole it had come up through.
The 60 foot mast, which is
the horizontal part on top that
does the actual lifting, was
let down by another portable
crane on the project which
has a lift of 125 feet. The
crane on the north tower is
still being used but will soon
be taken down the same
way.
According to the conduc
tion superintendent the crane
could lift an eight thousand
pound load. It is powered by
four electric motors totaling
55 horsepower. The operator
for the crane sits in the wood
en cab on top of its tower.
Landers said that construe
tion on the 13 story dormi
tories has now progressed far
enough that they will be able
to continue despite cold weath
er.. He added that the weath
er had certainly been "good
to them" until Thursday.
Workers have put up poly
ethylene films around the out
side to keep the temperature
inside tolerable. Landers said
that the pre-poured concrete
slabs go on very easily and
