Containment Pit Complicates Placement of 187-Ton Transformers
Tight timeline.
Congested project site.
A machinery move that pushes the limits of conventional equipment.
After traveling miles on an OTR trailer and navigating a maze-like construction site on self-propelled modular transporters (SPMTs), all that stood between two transformers and their final resting position was a 30-foot containment pit. With no room for a crane and just four days to complete the placement, the final…

Hold the Load! Smart Rigging Requires Locking Out Hydraulic Drift
Raising a load is the easy part. Holding it is the engineering problem. Hydraulic systems generate impressive lifting force, but they’re not inherently safe as a holding mechanism — seals wear, valves leak, and fluid bypass or thermal fluctuations can shift a load incrementally over time. That’s hydraulic drift, and on critical infrastructure projects and industrial construction sites, it’s unacceptable. Here’s how lift-and-lock technology keeps…
