Lifting an installation part by Nederhoff and Peinemann

It was necessary to use some heavy equipment to hoist a installation part for the expansion of the Hemweg power plant in Amsterdam (NL).

Either Nederhoff as Peinemann were using their biggest crane, two pieces Demag AC 650. The principal Wagenborg Nedlift was only there to do the transport.

Both cranes were put up with 140 tonnes of counterweight. The crane of Peinemann is already attachted, meanwhile Nederhoff is connection the counterweight.

The piece is transported by ship to the Amsterdam harbour area. The job was done on the loading quay of Beelen. The destination can be seen in the background, the two big chimneys.

The piece weights incl. transport frame 143 tonnes, and without frame still 135 tonnes.

Slowley is the piece swung trought the cranes. Behind the ballast trailer of Peinemann is the platform trailer of Wagenborg parked.

Both cranes have their boom 30.5 meters extended.

To transport the piece to the construction site was Wagenborg Nedlift using a MAN TGX 41.680 tracktor with 12 axle platform trailer.

The Nederhoff crane is leaving the construction site, up to the next job.
