Start lifting works high-voltage masts near Delft, NL
Thursday, January 26, 2012
On Tuesday 24 January, erection works on the
new Wintrack high-voltage masts for Randstad 380 kv project
commenced. Wagenborg Nedlift takes care of the lifting works of the
mast sections. Due to the special design of the mast sections,
special rigging equipment was required to handle the parts during
lifting operations. Especially the radiographic shackle has many
advantages: with only one crane, equipped with man basket, all
rigging works can be executed. Without this remote control shackle,
two cranes would be necessary to do the job. A safe and efficient
solution!
