22 Liebherr top-slewing cranes
of the EC, EC-H, EC-B and HC series
at work on the new
Allianz-Arena in Munich.
A new stadium concept: The Allianz-Arena in Munich
The buildings will cover an area of 37,600 square metres,
with a total usable floor area of 171,000 square metres. The
stadium, which makes use of an architectural concept that
is new to this type of structure, will have 66,000 seats for
spec-tators, arranged in three tiers inclined at 24 degrees at
the bottom level, 30 degrees in the centre and 34 degrees

at the top. This will guarantee a direct view of events on the
playing field below. The infrastructure includes 11,000 car
parking spaces, catering facilities occupying approximately
6,500 square metres, three crèches for young children, fan
shops, offices and conference rooms as well as extensive
facilities for the media.
EC, EC-H, EC-B and HC cranes
working at the Allianz Arena.
No fewer than 22 top-slewing cranes from Liebherr’s
complete tower crane programme are at work on this
project, including eleven of Type 280 EC-H 12, three from
Series EC-B with no tower head and others from the EC,
EC-H and HC series. The Liebherr tower cranes ensure
that loads are moved smoothly and efficiently from place
to place, including the more than 107,000 cubic metres of
concrete and 20,000 tons of steel called for by the project.

14 free-standing cranes are being used on stadium

construction work, with jibs between 40 and 60 metres
long to suit the oval ground plan. The cranes have
heights of between 30.6 and 68.8 metres under the hook.
75 m jib length
For the adjacent garage parking facility, which will be the
largest in Europe, eight Liebherr cranes are in use. Six of
these, of Type 280 EC-H 12, have jibs with the excep-
tional working radius of 75 metres, in order to deliver
material to any point on the 550 x 140 m site area. Even
at the outer end of these extremely long jibs, the cranes
can still lift up to 2,800 kilograms; some of them also
feature the added convenience of Litronic control. They
are supported by a 280 EC-B 12 Litronic crane without
tower head and a 256 HC top-slewing crane. All eight
cranes run on rail tracks 300 m long and with a track gauge
of 6 m, laid along the two sides of the parking garage.

A total of 22 Liebherr top-slewing cranes are being used

on the construction of the Allianz-Arena in Munich:
