The challenge

Five HVAC and plant items required distinct lifting, extraction and final-positioning methods.

Riglift planned each lift around the load shape and installation position. A 160-tonne mobile crane completed the primary lifts, with a lorry loader and forklift supporting delivery and ground-level movement.

The chillers were lifted into position before skates and a load steerer moved them into their final locations. The pressure vessels were landed, re-rigged and lifted again to stand them upright. The fan unit was removed from its overhead ducting position and lowered to the plant room floor.
