It works kinda

Pretty cool look at how the Park Avenue Viaduct is being replaced while keeping trains moving through one of the busiest rail corridors in the country.

The B1M did a great breakdown of the project and the custom Mi-Jack Travelift gantries built to remove, transport and replace sections of the viaduct.

Always interesting seeing equipment designed around a problem where a conventional crane setup isn’t really an option.

A little Saturday work, replacing a winch assembly.

Project Spotlight | San Antonio, TX 🚧

Recently, our team helped support a major university project in downtown San Antonio, safely lifting and setting a 27,000 lb generator, five ATS cabinets, and 15 AHU splits on a 110-foot-tall campus building.

With limited crane setup space, complex traffic coordination, and only inches of clearance inside the mechanical room, our crews worked alongside project partners to develop a detailed lift plan and keep the project on schedule. Using a 500-ton crane, specialized rigging methods, machine skates, and two extended shifts, the team successfully completed every lift and equipment placement safely and efficiently.
