A fine bridge, but can someone explain how they will be able to remove the building cranes from the top of the pillars?

  Liebherr has a plan. See https://youtu.be/ys_310mlbcI https://youtu.be/ys_310mlbcI

    I don’t see anything in that video about removing the cranes after construction. I suppose they could just leave the cranes, or remove them with a helicopter.

      Or tip them off. Raising a winch up, they could use it to lower the crane to a waiting boat.

  They got there by helicopter, so removal will also be done by helicopter.

    I see that I forgot to include the word likely. Either way, what I said is not correct. The crane just moved upwards as more and more blocks are installed and wasn't flown in by helicopter to the top. I don't really know what I was thinking there. https://www.1915canakkale.com/en-us/news/1915canakkale-bridge-s-piers-have-reached-a-height-of-100-meters https://www.1915canakkale.com/en-us/news/1915canakkale-bridg...

      They just keep going until the crane wraps around by integer overflow.

        knowing if it was unsigned or things might get really weird on the wrap around
