A 12 meter concrete block is finished at North Headland in Richards Bay Harbour

Description: The finished concrete block at North Headland in Richards Bay Harbour is a crucial element of the breakwater. With a concrete crown of 8.0 m width and 2.40 m thickness, it is exposed to the waves. The Manitowoc 4600 is used to move the heavy steel formwork and install the concrete. This setup allows the crane to drive directly onto the freshly poured block.
