The Capacity to Create
Our skilled staff can take an engineered approach to solving project challenges. Project solutions are created by a team of certified Professional Engineers and experienced craftsmen who partner to design, fabricate, and test virtually anything required for a project.
Building Our Own
Our capacity to design and fabricate is made possible in part by the in-house design and manufacturing of our own specialty crane line, VersaCrane™, with models ranging from 750 to 3,000 tons in capacity.
- Our fabrication facilities total nearly 100,000 square feet.
- The facilities are equipped with the tools needed such as a state-of-the-art robot welder, CNC tables, lathes, boring machines, radial drilling machines, cutting tables, saws, and multi-process welders.
- 24-hour crews are available.
- In addition to using our fabrication facilities to create custom project-specific solutions and VersaCranes™, we also use these facilities to create steel distribution systems, moment connection bridge ramps, temporary bridge systems, rigging, bolsters, and barge ramps, all of which will bring additional strength, efficiency, and safety to your project.
With these capabilities, we respond to client needs and provide faster service and quicker turnaround time, saving our clients time and money. When it comes to our business, we believe if it can be done, Deep South Crane & Rigging has the experience and the resources to do it best.
Deep South has a large fleet of equipment to allow the movement of vessels to wherever they need to be set, including VersaCranes™ to 3,000T, crawler cranes to 1,760T, truck cranes to 1,320T, and rigging hardware/specialty devices up to 1,600T. Deep South also has self-propelled modular transporters, over-the-road/dual-lane transport systems, towed hydraulic modular transporters, temporary bridge systems, levee crossing systems, lift towers, strand jacks, hydraulic gantries, hydraulic skid and hydraulic jacking systems, and marine and rail securement systems.
From our experienced engineers and project managers to our skilled craftsmen, riggers, and crane operators, Deep South's diligent pursuit of safety and innovation has provided our clients a path to on-time and successful projects. We can create lift plans or PE-stamped drawings and custom solutions as needed. Leaning on this expertise, coupled with a broad array of equipment, helps us to provide the absolute best in safety, service, and solutions. Whatever the project, the team at Deep South is ready to meet your challenge.
