A Nuclear power plant encountered a problem when trying to\nmove a Stud Rack (22,000 lb. payload) away from the cavity wall. During the\nlift the crane had to move the payload laterally to avoid overhead ducting. In\nthe middle of the complicated lift, the crane was moved the wrong way with\nalmost catastrophic repercussions. In the resulting swing of the crane the\npayload hit the wall of the cavity and a worker was almost caught between them.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Preferred Engineering was initially contacted to provide a\nnew modified Stud Rack system that would avoid the ducting and allow for a\nstraight vertical lift. However, upon review our engineers saw that the Stud\nRacks themselves were well made and they were able to provide the Plant\nCustomers with a quick cost effective solution to the problem. We designed a system\nto shift the Stud Rack into open space in a controlled manner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to providing a cost effective solution, we expedited our Stud Rack Rail System, providing it 6 weeks early to accommodate their needs. At Preferred Engineering, finding unbeatable solutions for our customers’ is our priority. Spreading outage “joy” to the Nuclear Industry is our goal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
