Where the Crane can't go

We were restricted by where the crane was positioned and we had no option to move it.

So for plant being installed on the other side of the building MRI London built a track across the roof.

We had to insure the load would be spread so the roof could support it. Quite simply the roof is not designed to take that much weight.

We couldn't do this inside because existing plant was in the way.


Going Down

Above the place where the new plant was needed we cut another hole and built an A frame over the top.

Once the plant was taken over the roof on the tracks we laid, it had to be lifted into the building and lowered.

Although close together the roof team and the inside team are not in direct contact.

Again, through team work and experience, MRI accomplished the task.
