Hanes Supply was contacted by a customer to assist in the assessment and supply of rigging equipment to move a turbo compressor unit weighing 356,000 pounds. Upon evaluation it was found that some obstacles existed. There were two large funnels coming out of the top of the unit and a row of bayonet fittings that would be in the way of traditional rigging. The unit was manufactured with lifting lugs in place but the funnels prevented using two overhead hooks to rig the load out from the center on each end.

Hanes Supply, Inc. of Albany, was asked to advise the necessary rigging for a project to take a 38,900 lb Excavator turn it vertically and lower the unit down a 24’ diameter tunnel opening 200’ deep. The unit would be turned back to a horizontal position for excavation of rock debris at the bottom of the tunnel. We had to use all four pick points in the rear end of the Excavator to absorb the load equally. We had to meet the 70% safety factor of the rigging working load limits for MSHA standards while lowering the Excavator in tunnel.

7,296 Holes on the Rochester, NY Troop Howell Bridge needed to be either reamed from 13/16" or drilled to 1-1/16". The process was complicated as there were three plates of structural steel totaling 3-1/16" thick. Further complicating the process was the fact the concrete placement resulted in misalignment of the steel plates.
