Sarens has a world-renowned, decades-long reputation for performing bridge installations across land and water, and in every possible configuration. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Building on our record of innovative bridge installations, we recently placed a new truss bridge in Pepinster, Belgium, completing the project with our signature ability to adapt, innovate, and deliver winning results for our clients. Adeptly responding to unexpected, in-the-moment changes and tight schedules, the Sarens team successfully lifted and installed the new 270-tonne, 40-metre-long bridge along with four 140-tonne abutments. We also lifted two 142-tonne concrete sections connecting the truss bridge to the mainland. For this operation, Sarens deployed the SL 3800 crawler crane with 60-metre main boom in an SSL_1 configuration. To ensure that it could easily move between the assembly area, where all the elements were stored, and the riverside installation site, the crew set up a 90-metre long track, streamlining the crane movement between locations. Not only did this operation showcase Sarens; industry-leading expertise in bridge installation, but our ability to adapt in response to last-minute challenges. For example, when several heavy items were delivered to the project site via rail instead of road as had originally been planned, the team had to develop new solutions for a completely different setup. Sarens worked closely with the client to make these changes possible, extending the project schedule and expanding to both day and night operations to execute each of the planned lifts. Despite these unexpected schedule and setup shifts, our team responded with clear-eyed solutions that allowed the client to successfully complete the installation. We did this all while honoring our existing commitments to the next client awaiting the crane, transferring it to their work site within a brief timeframe. Sarens is proud to have helped our client restore the entire bridge and railway line in record time, showing once again that although circumstances may change, one thing stays constant: our ability to find innovative solutions to every type of challenge.<\/p>\n
