Installation of 185-Foot Access Platform at Power Plant
The Heritage team recently installed a 185-foot-high access platform atop a local power plant. This crucial project will significantly enhance safety for workers inspecting the plant’s smokestacks.
Regular inspections of smokestacks are vital for ensuring power plants’ safe and efficient operation. These inspections often require workers to access difficult-to-reach areas at significant heights. The newly installed platform provides a secure and reliable means of accessing the smokestacks, minimizing the risks associated with traditional climbing methods.
THE CHALLENGE
The project scope included:
- Working at extreme heights with fall protection systems and certified equipment operators
- Certified man lift operators ensured adherence to industry safety standards
- Heritage technicians used precise rigging techniques to lift the structure utilizing a crane and secure the platform components to the top of the power plant structure
THE EXECUTION
This project exemplifies Heritage’s commitment to safety and innovation in the industrial construction sector. The team’s expertise and dedication to safety protocols ensured this critical installation’s successful and timely completion.
