FAQ

When are ropes used instead of lifts on towers?

Hydraulic lifts cover the levels they can reach, and the rest is done by rope access teams up to the top of the building. On this project both methods were used together.

Can an entire tower facade be cleaned within a tight schedule?

Yes. Combining lifts with rope access shortens the schedule, which is how this project covered the whole building within the required timeframe.
