The knowledge and experience within the team means we excel on even the most complex multi-modal projects. We’re problems solvers and our in-house engineering team support projects by designing and engineering bespoke solutions to industry challenges.

Our abnormal load engineering capabilities include:

• Completing desktop route reports, using mapping to identify
suitable routes for the heavy project cargo.
• Conducting driven route surveys, to photograph challenging
aspects of the route, measure pinch points, measure the heights
of overhead lines, identify trees that need trimming or street
furniture that needs removing to allow the oversized cargo to
pass through.
• Completing swept path analysis to simulate the heavy lift
equipment on specific junctions or crossroads along the route.
• Handling all elements of abnormal load permits.
• Designing and engineering overbridging solutions for structures
along the route.
• Designing and engineering bespoke heavy transport solutions
and arrangements.
• Producing risk assessments and method statements to cover the
transport and site activities.
