Everyone has an opinion, but as far as I believe the mandatory Europe Sche procurement. This should enable these kind of jobs, but cheaper and cheaper so you inevitably loses on quality and safety. But that seems to escape most of the clients.
This is to try to drink a glass of beer on a gym ball.
I am concerned only positive comentaar rosemary. a lot of headlines tell everyone there is left just in time only one dog (really not normal). I personally think that dog more important that those people
cranes ‘Peineman’; what’s in a name …. ouch
41 seconds, you hear a call spotter (observation male) Many other orange males sprigen Danal road and on the dock, it is not meet to hold. Prut Work boys, happy dir is very well filmed, so deaf pots they can not. Is also a very nice town to Alphen aan den Rijn, see the geschenis but !!!
Did we have this sort of thing used to be not the State Agency for transport and water. or who already weggeprivatiseerd again.
OnHollands fumbling! Had the Fa. Mammoet’s do the job! This was obviously the cheapest! But as so often is Cheap often Duurkoop! The homeowners are temporarily in the lurch because in the fine print will not be covered this!
With heavy land cranes on barges must have riggers and stability engineers Heerema Heavy lifting. Once you get going heisen center of gravity meters up and sits above the center of gravity of the pontoon and then you have unstable equilibrium. If you also goes slewing crane, rear did that very quickly, then you lose your balance and fall to the pontoon askew, the crane falls. Clearly no stability calculation made for the pontoon.
Oops that was a mistake, just call Apeldoorn
When lifting something can always go wrong. The condition is that all buildings in the area to be cleared before work begins. Safety first.
I myself crane mobile crane half year stood at Amsterdam boat was regularly a real sweat. This is what is happening here was very risky because t move too much zn pontoon which was in my opinion not properly anchored. Have just seen a filpje but I broke a chain or so it seemed right. Hopefully no dead victims wish everyone a lot of strength
Ever tried your toddler to lift your shoulders when you’re standing on a surfboard?
I do not give a damn sense of it. But a cow can still understand that this can not .So, move n weight on wobbly surface. VERY DOM !!!!!
If the so-called hero it had felt so good, I would have taken in any case my dog out of the crate, the poor animal could no way …. but yes, it will come back enough commentary on my mind, an animal counted does not ..
Fortunately, the damage is one dog did not survive, but this should be sorted to the bottom, who, what and how.
Was indeed must happen with a floating crane. Research will tell. But the suffering is unfortunately ago
That ingenieurke who thought that giving directly c4 and leave pay for all costs. It’s not because you get a diploma that you all know better. A small child could see that this had to go wrong but yes that has no title huh.
What’s wrong with the bridge part to carry water across the bridge aftesluiten first cranes to lift off from the pontoon e’s done a bite you on hold ont o
Bagwany 130 ton can most certainly did. So who is there to sell this nonsense. Crane plus ballast may already be at the 100 tons. If you do not know you then do not go whining. Hope it stays with injuries and no deaths. Strength for those involved.
