  • Runway made of wooden pillars

    August 3, 2021

    Chantiers Chibougamau, a loyal customer for more than 10 years, recently had a new challenge for us. Their request appeared simple at first; they wanted to install runways to support a double girder crane with a lifting capacity of 40 tons. However, there was a specific requirement to respect. Since Chantiers Chibougamau is a wood manufacturer, their plant is mostly made of wood. As a result, the execution was more complicated, since the runways had to be supported by wooden columns. This project was very rewarding for our team, as we normally work with steel structures. Our team went above and beyond to find a customized solution that fit the client’s request. In order to adapt to our client’s needs, we developed a special system in partnership with IMS Solutions, an engineering firm. The solution was to manufacture a support system in which supports are installed on the columns with lag bolts. This allows the wooden columns to support the entire lifting system.
