ecoportal.net > uk > crawler-transporter-burning-165-gallons-per > 3085

Burning 165 gallons per mile across Florida flatland, the crawler transporter has hauled three entirely different rocket programs across six decades and no replacement has ever been ordered

14+ hour, 4+ min ago   (708+ words) The gravel under it gets ground to powder. Not all at once. Surveyed and replenished, because each steel tread shoe weighs about a ton, and there are 456 of them. The machine covers four and a half miles of Florida flatland…...


ecoportal.net > uk > steel-arch-spans-weighing-million-pounds > 3071

Steel arch spans weighing 5 million pounds each rode the Hudson River for 30 hours apiece, and crews then jacked all three of them 60 feet straight up over the Hackensack

1+ day, 1+ hour ago   (867+ words) Three tugboats sat in the dark water at the Port of Coeymans, lines taut, waiting for the tide. Behind them on a heavy barge rode something that weighed five million pounds and stretched 400 feet from end to end. It was…...


ecoportal.net > uk > concrete-boxes-danish-harbor-immersed-tunnel-baltic > 2688

Each of the 89 concrete boxes being cast beside a Danish harbor is 712 feet long and gets towed to sea by tugboats, while the box itself very nearly floats and is sunk on purpose with water pumped into it

3+ day, 18+ hour ago   (786+ words) Weight is not what makes an object hard to move across water. Displacement is. A ship of 80,000 tons is moved by tugs every day of the week, and nobody finds it remarkable. So the interesting question about a tunnel section…...


ecoportal.net > uk > 461-foot-rock-ship-built-philadelphia > 2596

A 461 foot rock installation ship built in Philadelphia carries 22,000 tons of stone in its hold, while an inclined pipe under the hull puts that stone on the seabed one load at a time

4+ day, 20+ hour ago   (846+ words) Stand on the quay and the ship reads as a bulk carrier with something extra bolted through it. A steel tube runs down from a house on deck, through the hull, and out below the waterline at an angle, and…...


ecoportal.net > uk > shore-cranes-lost-overboard-bay-of-biscay-galicia > 2436

Two shore cranes 302 feet tall were lashed to the deck of a 554 foot carrier bound from Germany to Thailand, but a Bay of Biscay storm put nearly all of both into the sea off Galicia

5+ day, 19+ hour ago   (780+ words) A container crane is designed for one thing above all else. To stand on a quay, perfectly level, forever, with its whole weight pressing straight down through four legs into concrete. Every assumption in the steel follows from that. Then…...


ecoportal.net > uk > wind-turbine-blade-nearly-160-feet > 2302

A turbine blade 159 feet long jammed at a right angle bend in a Pennsylvania village and drove its tip through a garage wall, and the permit routing it there described the load as a paper roll

6+ day, 4+ min ago   (826+ words) A village street corner that turns ninety degrees, houses tight on both sides. Across it lies something white and tapering that does not fit. The far end has gone into the wall of a small garage, about a foot deep....


ecoportal.net > uk > 1033-foot-steel-deck-bridge-slide-over-live-motorway > 2301

A 1,033 foot steel deck weighing 5,070 tons had to cross an English motorway nobody wanted to shut, but the bridge slide that carried it over ran at 43 feet an hour with cars still moving underneath

6+ day, 2+ hour ago   (800+ words) Traffic on the northbound side never stopped. Drivers came through at the limit, glanced up out of habit, and saw a dark girder box where there had been open sky the week before. It was traveling sideways above their roofs…...


ecoportal.net > en > a-bradenville-wind-turbine-blade-permit-paper-machine-roll > 35611

A wind turbine blade jammed at a right angle corner in Bradenville and drove 1 foot through the wall of a repair shop, and the permit that routed it there described the cargo as a paper machine roll

6+ day, 6+ hour ago   (800+ words) The wall gave way like a cardboard box. Wooden siding, tar paper, a layer of insulation, and then a white composite tip standing inside a working auto shop with the daylight visible around it. Nothing about it was fast. The…...


ecoportal.net > uk > wyoming-trench-turbine-blades-thermoset-cement-kiln > 2417

A Wyoming trench holds 1,124 turbine blades cut into thirds, a burial that ended not with a ban but with a rule that the pieces arrive four inches or smaller

1+ week, 9+ hour ago   (815+ words) A blade is built never to fail. Twenty five years of gusts, ice, heat and load reversal, bending millions of times over without a crack opening anywhere along it. The industry met that specification. Then the blade comes down, and…...
