After months of work, the cranes are finally ready to be mobilised on Thursday. The two-hundred tonne-plus (two hundred thousand kilogram) concrete pontoon will be hoisted from the working quay just outside ‘t Zand in the Noord-Hollands Kanaal (North Holland Canal)....
The load-out of three concrete pontoon shells built by Hercules Betoncasco BV at a location near ‘t Zand in North Holland took place on Thursday, 26 March. Hercules Betoncasco BV, based in Emmeloord, builds concrete shells at its own dock.
What do you do if your structure is still in great shape, but the shell has rotted away? Just have your boat fitted into a new shell. But what do you do if that boat cannot be hoisted? You come up with a creative solution.
