STREET CRANES FOR ROYAL NAVY
Two more Street cranes have been commissioned at RN Air Station, Culdrose.  One is installed within an existing aircraft hangar, the other within a new design and build hangar development by contractors Kier Western.  
	Two double girder cranes, each lifting 2.5 tonnes, have been installed in exceptionally wide bays of 31 and 34.6 metres.  Because of the wide span and consequent depth of the crane beams, hoists are located within the height of the beam to give the greatest clear area beneath.  The ZX hosts selected for this application are the product of an extensive development programme to ensure high performance with exceptional safety and reliability.
	For flexibility the cranes are dual speed on both long and cross travel.  Control of the cranes is via suspended pendants that are mobile across the bridges of the cranes; these allow the operators to work from positions of safety.
	The UK's largest independent volume crane builder, Street offer a full range of electric overhead travelling cranes and hoists catering for lifting applications from 50 kilos to over 200 tonnes.  The company design and manufacture structures, hoists, controls and travelling equipment in house, this enables them to offer competitive products of assured quality.
