France-based construction company Demanthieu & Bard recently chose a Grove GMK5250L all terrain crane to erect a Potain MD238A J10 tower crane in Nancy, France.

The GMK5250L has a 70 m main boom with a working radius of 20 m and is owned by the French rental company Alsace Levage Manutention (ALM). The MD238A J10 is helping to construct an apartment and office complex near the railway station.

The all terrain completed the tower erection in just one day, the company said.
