2x10T Gantry
Mandate
The mandate consisted of completing the engineering and drafting for a 2x10T gantry used for the maintenance of hydroelectric dam gates.
Challenges
Due to the tight schedule imposed by the client, it was not feasible to use new equipment, as the delivery times would have been too long. We therefore prioritized the use of refurbished equipment, which was then modified and adapted to meet the specific requirements of the project.
We also had to ensure that the gantry was designed with sufficient clearance to move safely around the existing structures on the dam, while maintaining its full structural integrity.
In addition, the logistics phase — including assembly, transport, and component delivery — was carefully planned. Several preventive measures were implemented to avoid incidents or delays during the arrival of the equipment on-site.
