To handle the increasing number of passengers and larger cargo volumes, Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport in Mumbai, India, has been undergoing a continuous process of expansion since 2006.

As part of the ambitious project Indian construction and mechanical engineering company Larsen & Toubro (L&T) is building a new multi-storey parking structure and a new air traf c control tower. Among equipment being used are 1222 Terex CTT 181-8 and CTT 231-10 tower cranes. The two flat top tower cranes are mainly used to provide the workers with the steel and concrete needed to build the two structures.

Able to reach heights of nearly 30m and with 35m-long jibs, they can lift up to 10tonnes for the parking structure and 8tonnes for the tower.

The projects are scheduled for completion by December, 2013.
