Project Details

Project Description: Due to its age, the existing building was inconsistent and made retrofitting overhead gantry cranes challenging. Without provision for packing and alignment in the design solution, mounting the crane beams directly to the original mullions was not feasible. Boweng worked with the asset owners and designers to adopt a packer plate system that allowed the sheds mullion base to be fabricated, surveyed and welded prior to the beam install; ensuring installation tolerances were compliant with the crane code.
