Prangl successfully completed a cross-discipline, special project after almost a year’s planning time: The Dürnrohr power plant is being rebuilt and equipped with a gigantic boiler.
The boiler has extraordinary measurements of 16 metres in length, 9 metres in height and 6 metres in width, and had to be turned and laid on the side wall for transport before loading in Serbia. The load arrived at the former Zwentendorf nuclear power plant by river barge.
Prangl was not just entrusted with the full logistical concept (shipping, unloading, transport, handling and lifting in), but also with all critical auxiliary tasks. The ground in the area of the power station was checked and Prangl also set up the crane site.
240 excavator mats made of highly robust wood were used for this. Even the special sling was developed by our in-house engineering department. A specialist company then produced the relevant components. Prangl also provided all other additional equipment such as telehandlers and articulating boom lifts.
