200 Lifts at Michigan Power Plant
At a Michigan power plant, Deep South utilized a 660-ton Demag CC-2800 (pictured here) to complete 200 lifts over an 8 month duration. This included multiple bag-house modules and duct sections, weighing up to 85 tons and measuring up to 85 feet in length. In addition, the 160-ton Tadano GR-1600XL-2 was used in the early phase of the project for erecting steel. Extreme temperatures brought 100 inches of snow during this time.
