Custom Solutions
We Can Design, Build, and Test Specialized Lifting and Transport Equipment to Meet the Needs of Your Project
Our work typically presents us with many challenges. We can tackle these challenges through our creative engineering and extensive fabrication capabilities. Quality is assured through many methods including finite element analysis, computer modeling and analysis, non-destructive testing, proof loading, and pull-testing.
Examples of our solutions to tough project challenges include:
- River levee crossing bridge (capacity >1,000 tons)
- Bridge jumpers through 100’ span
- Hydraulic jacking, skidding, and gantry systems
- Lift towers and strand jacks
- Low-profile, inverted saddle systems (for minimizing transport height)
- Hydraulic adjustable spreader bars and lift beams

Southeast Petrochemical Turnaround
Supplying all cranes in two units during a petrochemical turnaround in the Southeast, Deep South supported the change out of old components and reinstallation of new components with 19 cranes working throughout the project.
A Flare for Efficiency

A Flare for Efficiency
Routine maintenance plant turnarounds are typically anything but straightforward—as a turnaround in the Southeast quickly demonstrated. The effort called for the removal and replacement of three exchangers, as well as a flare modular replacement. The size and location of the exchangers, the tight window for replacement of the flare, and localized high working-wind speeds were a few of the top challenges that the Deep South team were tasked to overcome.
A High Lift for Health
View Project
A High Lift for Health
As part of an HVAC system upgrade, a client needed to place a new industrial-size, 25,000-pound chiller onto the roof of its multi-story medical facility. Located in a congested urban environment, the challenges ranged from limited space to set up cranes and associated support equipment to a requirement that trees along the roadway were not to be disturbed. Also, the road and medical facility had to remain open throughout the effort.
