Hulcher Excavator & Crew Perform Load Adjustment of Steel Pipes
Scope:
A load of steel pipes had shifted during transit and needed to be reloaded so it would be properly balanced. Hulcher Services deployed a Caterpillar® 325D excavator and crew.
Solution:
The excavator repositioned and restacked the pipes into a safe configuration. The crew then secured the pipes with the proper bindings, in accordance with AAR standards, including AAR Open Top Loading Rules. The project was completed successfully, on time and on budget.
Outcome:
Railroads and grain, coal, and industrial facilities across the country trust Hulcher’s experience to perform tie-down, transfer, load adjustment and load reduction projects like this each year.
