Lifting and Rotating Suspended Loads with a Strand Jack Gantry with Rotation Unit
One of the many challenges for logistics companies in the power generation sector is installation of new equipment. Loads are typically transported on trailers positioned parallel to the power plant, however, the equipment needs to be lifted and installed perpendicular to the trailer.

Offshore Production Facility Module Load-Out
An offshore production facility was constructed in the Gulf of Mexico and is projected to be located in water depths of in excess of 5,000 ft. In order to construct the tension-leg platform several modules weighing approximately 7,000 tons needed to be slid into position.

Installing Pylon Sections of a Cable-Stayed Bridge with a SyncHoist
Gotowski constructed a 200 meter long cable-stayed "University Bridge" to connect two parts of Bydgoszcz separated by the Brda River. The bridge's design requires the erection of two 68 meter tall pylons (towers) to support the bridge deck. Constructed in sections, the pylons weighed 90 to 130 tons and needed to be positioned with precise accuracy.

Fondazione create per turbine a vento offshore
il produttore di turbine eoliche Bard Engineering GmbH ha sviluppato un concetto unico per le fondazioni delle turbine eoliche. Il pilone sarebbe posto su di una traversa di supporto che giace al di sopra della superficie dell’acqua su tre palificazioni principali. Il sistema di sollevamento sincrono dell’Enerpac sarebbe usato per livellare questo elemento trasversale di supporto, accuratamente ed in un tempo relativamente breve.

SKYFFOLDING Scaffolding and Lifting System Supported by Strand Jacks
Heavy lift specialist, Enerpac Heavy Lifting Technology, has supplied Korean based engineering company, KLES, with strand jacks for an innovative tower scaffolding system called SKYFFOLDING™ (Platform-supported Boiler in-Furnace Scaffolding and Lifting System). The Enerpac HSL1507 strand jacks support and lift the pendant-type, scaffolding system, as it grows, providing a safer working environment than traditional scaffolding during power plant boiler furnace maintenance.

Lowering and Leveling a Caisson Pier Box for New Johnson Street Bridge
The existing 90-year-old Johnson Street Bridge is located at the heart of Victoria, B.C. and is in the process of being replaced with a new bridge that will serve the community for the next 100 years. The new bridge is being built adjacent to the existing bridge, allowing the important transportation connection into Victoria's downtown to remain open during construction. The new bridge design includes a 25 meter long by 20 meter wide bascule pier box which will house the mechanical and electrical componentry for opening and closing the bridge span across the marine harbor.

Lifting Precision of a Hydraulic Gantry Key to Humber River Railroad Bridge Reconstruction
When leading Canadian heavy lift contractor, Western Mechanical, was asked to assist in the replacement of the Humber River railroad bridge it selected an Enerpac hydraulic gantry for the precision lifting and replacement of bridge spans over an 8-week period.

Jack Up System Lifts 1,500-ton Span on Fore River Bridge
No one would call the temporary bridge that was constructed in 2002 over the Fore River between Quincy and Weymouth, Mass., a work of art. The bridge replaced a 1936 Art Deco gem when it could no longer safely carry the 32,000 cars that cross the river each weekday.

Lifting the Songdo Cable-Stayed Bridge Pylons
Lifting and positioning two 2,000 ton cable-stayed bridge pylons into place. To prevent counter-balance issues, it was critical to erect both pylon sections simultaneously and within a very tight tolerance. Any counter-balance issues would have created a lopsided load and put undue stress on the center pillar. The lack of a good footprint and the approximately 100 meter lifting height made the lift almost impossible for two cranes or another lifting solution. The need to lift from the central point of the structure required a high capacity lifting solution that could raise both sections simultaneously from a central point.

Removal of Decommissioned London Tube Trains with a Hydraulic Gantry
Nine London Underground 1983 model stock trains were decommissioned and abandoned in the South Harrow sidings in 1998 when the 96 model stock trains were introduced. The poor condition of the 83 train cars made it unsafe to haul out onto the network to a depot. Sonic Rail Services were contracted by the Station Works and Improvement Program (SWIP) of London Underground to remove the carriages from the South Harrow station sidings, with minimal disruption to the network and to undertake the necessary remedial repairs to the track.

Transformer Lift and Weigh Saves Freight Cost
Machinery Movers needed to know the exact weight of a transformer before it was shipped from New Zealand to India. A load in excess of the port’s 110 ton maximum lifting capacity would require a special ship to be brought in which would incur significant freight costs.
