Leading lifting solutions company, Ainscough Crane Hire<\/a>, has lifted a \u2018Skew\u2019 bridge \u00a0in Lytham St Annes, Lancashire. A Skew bridge takes its name from the slanted angle at which it crosses its obstacle.<\/p>\n

Working under strict time restrictions, Ainscough used a Liebherr LTM 1300-6.2<\/a> to lift the bridge sections onto a waiting trailer and a LTM 1095-5.1<\/a> to remove the sections once they had been delivered by road to the recycling centre in Wigan.<\/p>\n

The crane required full ballast and went through a six hour rigging and de-rigging process which was difficult to plan owing to the site\u2019s constraints.<\/p>\n

Overseen by Ainscough\u2019s team which included contract manager Ross Chappell, a lift supervisor, two slinger banksmen and the crane operator, the lifts were planned in meticulous detail during four site visits with the client and other contractors.<\/p>\n

Paul Haigh, depot manager at Ainscough\u2019s Lancaster Depot, and the appointed person on the lift, said: \u201cWorking with a rail possession always brings with it a focus on efficiency and timing. Everything needs to run like clockwork and there is often very little leeway.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe removal lift of the skew bridge was the most challenging here as the highways were quite narrow and space was at something of a premium. This meant the solution for the lift involved the crane positioned on one side of the bridge, with the trailer on the other. The sections were then attached-to-and-braced-by the crane while the final cut was made. Once free, we lifted them onto the waiting trailer.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe trailer then made its way to the recycling centre where a much more straight forward lift of the sections took place. The entire process took 10 hours which was shorter than we had planned for.\u201d<\/p>\n

Although this was the first project delivered for Lancashire County Council, since its completion, addition lifts have been carried out.<\/p>\n

Mark Dunbar, area sales manager added: \u201cIt required a team effort and I\u2019d like to pay tribute to the individuals who were instrumental in delivering this project.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
