ALL Cranes Relies On Two Liebherrs For Dual Pick At Bridge In Cleveland

Building bridges is never an easy job. Especially if this bridge runs over busy railway tracks. ALL Crane, the largest crane rental company in the United States, relies on Liebherr cranes to place the bridge span in an ambitious time frame. The LTM 1450-8.1 and the LTM 1250-6.1 mobile cranes were the cranes of choice for this project in Cleveland, Ohio.

Maybe constructing a three-span pedestrian and bicycle bridge sounds easy enough. But what if it’s going over the third-busiest set of railroad tracks in the United States, with estimated traffic of 100 trains per day? In that case, you have to work closely with the railroad to get the critical work-clearance time you need to set spans. And it’s likely to be scheduled in extremely brief, single-hour increments. That would take a perfect combination of planning, materials, people, and cranes to get the job done.

“The evolution of material handlers has gone so much faster than what we’ve seen on the automotive side. Thirty years ago, every terminal was loading and unloading with a cable crane and a clamshell bucket. Then, we went through some smaller hydraulic excavators. We feel very fortunate with this purchase that, once again, we’re on the cutting edge and looking forward.”
