Notes for IC50 Tower Index
In a similar way to the main IC50 Index, companies that own and/or rent out tower cranes are ranked by their IC Tower Index. Reflecting the widespread use of the tonne-metre rating method, the index is calculated by adding together the maximum load moment rating in tonne-metres for all tower cranes in a company's fleet. Where companies supply the full data the figure used is calculated by them. Like the main IC50 listing the IC Tower Index will be updated in the first quarter of 2008. If you would like an application form for your company for next year's listing, please contact IC at the address on page 3.
