Overcoming challenges: poor site conditions

As the snow begins melting and the days get longer, construction projects begin to kick into high gear in the Northwest. Both residential and commercial projects have their challenges that people work to overcome. For example, in some commercial jobs, moving heavy items through tricky situations might be a common challenge.  

Problem: Poor Site Conditions

However, for both types of construction projects, space is often a big issue. Crews find that these construction projects have poor site conditions. This could be due to obstructions, like geography or other buildings, or weakened soil after a wet winter. Whatever the case, crews have to find a way to safely place equipment in otherwise inaccessible locations. That’s what Strate Line Crane and Rigging comes in. 

Solution: Professional Crane and Rigging Teams

One of our main services is the ability to place large hydraulic equipment below grade for large-scale excavation projects. In the attached photo, our team of trained professionals utilized cranes to lower equipment into an otherwise inaccessible position. Our cranes are able to safely hold and move large loads, which increased the efficiency of construction, saving time and money. 

Remember: Safety First 

However, don’t think that these moves can be attempted by just anyone. Sometimes, part of our job is to rescue equipment that has been placed in unsafe situations. These failed experiments often come at the cost of damaged equipment or property, while putting the safety of those working on the site at risk. Safety should always be the first priority.
