Fig. 10-18. A pump boom mounted on a mast and located
near the center of a structure can frequently reach all
points of placement. It is especially applicable to tall
buildings where tower cranes cannot be tied up with
placing concrete. Concrete is supplied to the boom through
a pipeline from a ground-level pump. Concrete can be
pumped hundreds of meters (feet) vertically with these
pumping methods. (49935)
