Carmel Hall - As close as it gets

Case History for Francis Holland school

Carmell Hall

Some times very rarely we witness a little moment that is so touch and go that when it comes off you want to share it and this is one such moment and I hope you don’t mind me sharing it with you.

In this contract ,we had circa 30tonnes of steel to erect in a courtyard, building locked basement 3m deep. Access was to be via a pair of double doors then through a personnel corridor.

We utilised two spider cranes though it was always going to be tight .We manoeuvred both cranes down the corridor. When they emerged one lifted the other down the basement pit. The second crane then completed the steel erection prior to being hoisted from the pit by the first crane. both cranes then scamper back through the corridor job done !!.
