Engineering Staging Solutions for Heavy Cargo
Managing challenging heavy-lifting, break bulk, and industrial machinery relocation logistics. Engineers design logistics plans, perform bridge-load calculations, and secure multi-axle trailer routing configurations to move out-of-gauge (OOG) machinery.
Handling the transport of steam turbines, infrastructure structures, refinery towers, and production lines. Coordinating port cranes, securing transport permits, and maintaining cargo safety.
Capabilities
Heavy Lift Management
Coordinated crane staging, custom rigging plans, and port stevedoring supervision for oversized cargo.
Route & Bridge Audits
Comprehensive civil engineering route surveys, overhead height clearances, and bridge load capability assessments.
Multi-Axle Trailers
Access to specialized modular trailers (SPMT) and extendable low beds for custom weight-distribution setups.
Regulatory Clearances
Securing regional transport authority permits, highway police escorts, and port break bulk approvals.
Workflow
Engineering & Route Survey
Engineers trace the route, verifying clearances, curves, and loading bridge structures.
Lashing & Staging Checks
Rigging experts oversee cargo loading, executing high-tension lashing and cargo protection checks.
Escorted Transit & Port Loading
The heavy trailer departs under fleet supervision and escorts, delivering to port cranes for loading.
Project Cargo FAQs
Out-of-Gauge cargo consists of shipments that exceed the dimensions of a standard 20ft or 40ft shipping container (e.g. height, width, or length). These require special equipment like flat racks, open tops, or break bulk vessels.
A detailed route audit takes between 3 to 10 business days depending on distance, terrain complexity, number of bridges, and highway authorities involved.
