Rough Terrain
As the name implies, these cranes are equipped with an engine and wheels that will take them easily through unpaved areas and challenging landscapes. Rough terrain cranes are ideal for off-road areas that might be a challenge for other types of cranes. Because of this, using a rough terrain mobile crane requires less site prep than other types of cranes. Rough terrain cranes are 4-wheel drive vehicles and generally operate on a single engine that powers both the undercarriage and the boom.
