Blue Sea Modular Transport
In South Carolina, Deep South was contracted to transport and secure seven modules from the fabricator shop to a barge site via Scheuerle SPMTs. Using Deep South’s barge ramps, squat cans, squat beams, and over 250 chains, Deep South rolled onto the barge safely and efficiently secured the modules for their blue sea voyage.
Pictured here is the longest module that weighed 640,000 pounds and was 190’ long x 24’ wide. The trailer configuration utilized was a 24-line double-wide Scheuerle SPMT, with spacer decks incorporated to support the integrity of the module.

Deep South lifted and set double-rail bridge truss sections weighing 800,000 pounds each along a railroad line that crosses the Tug Fork River at Hatfield Bottom near Matewan, WV. Our crews engineered and fabricated custom lifting beams suitable for removing the existing truss bridges and lifting the new bridge spans into place and used our 1,760-ton capacity Terex-Demag CC-8800-1 crawler crane.

For more than 50 years, Deep South Crane & Rigging has been distinguishing itself throughout North America. Founder Camile Landry has an intense appreciation for cranes, and he has always been intrigued by projects that require a higher level of skill and expertise. In the 1980s, he saw a need for a new generation of cranes. He envisioned a high-capacity crane with a smaller footprint and a tighter tail swing. He wanted to see a crane that could be transported easier than other heavy lift cranes.
