Companies are listed by their IC Index, which is calculated by adding together the total maximum load moment in tonne metres of all crawler cranes and mobile cranes in a company's fleet. As with the tower listing, a total tonne-metre rating of a company's fleet better reflects the fleet's capability. The figure is calculated by the crane owning companies. The IC50 Index will be updated in early 2007. If you think your company should be included please contact IC for an application form. * IC estimate
