They are made up of sections that are assembled on site. There is a motorizedsection that lifts up the cab and arm to insert new sections when needed.

Cranes build themselves by raising their top section up on stilts and then lifting a piece of it’s ‘neck’ up and then into the open section. You can see a video of this happening here. Outside of that, they’re just moved to building sites in large chunks by trucks or trains and they go from there.

Cranes have legs and wings. They are actually able to move themselves, even when they are of the large variety.
