The construction industry in Asia is growing at a notable growth rate. According to the Asia Development Bank Organization, Asia Pacific countries invest around US$ 1.7 trillion per year in the construction sector. The sector is growing at a rapid pace owing to increasing demand for residential construction projects and rapid infrastructure developments in the public sector. Owing to such developments, the demand for self erecting tower cranes is increasing at a notable rate.
Self-erecting tower cranes operate remotely without a cabin. The cranes are commonly used on small to mid-sized construction projects due to their self-contained nature and lack of the need for additional cranes. One of the primary factors behind the increasing demand for self erecting tower cranes is the increasing urbanization and rising construction activities. Urbanization results in the conversion of land for residential, commercial, industrial, and transportation use. According to the updated list of urban areas provided by the United States Census Bureau in December 2022, urban population in the US increased by 6.9% between 2010 and 2023. The West region of the US remained the most urban of the country's four census areas, with 88.9% of its inhabitants living in cities, followed by the Northeast region with 84.0% as of 2022. Apart from the US, Spain has also witnessed a notable rise in urbanization.
In urban and rural areas, there are increased investments by several countries' governments in construction activities. According to the World Bank Organization report, in 2022, US$ 91.7 billion was invested in 263 infrastructure projects in the private sector across all low- and middle-income countries such as India, China, Japan, and Africa. This represents 23% growth in 2022 compared to 2021, at an average growth rate of 4% during 2017–2021. In 2022, there has been a significant rebound in construction activities in developing countries with growing investment commitments post-COVID-19 pandemic.
Smart city projects focus on the transition to a more efficient and effective utility infrastructure. Smart city development projects use tower cranes, self-erecting cranes, and other advanced construction equipment to optimize material handling. The use of self-erecting cranes helps increase operational efficiency, reduces energy usage and expenditures, and leads to proactive decision-making. According to Smart America, in June 2022, city governments in the US announced their plan to invest ∼US$ 41 trillion in infrastructure upgrades and the implementation of Internet of Things solutions over the next 20 years. Also, the European Union Commission's Horizon Europe objective aims to transform 100 cities into climate-neutral and smart by 2030.
