At Fortis, we’re always looking for safer, more efficient ways to handle complex operations. Recently, we supplied and operated a set of 70-ton strand jack units to assist in the lifting and installation of a modular pre-assembled headframe steel.
Fortis provided the strand jacks, complete with engineering prints for mounting in the existing headframe steel, and specialty-trained operators who assisted the client’s ironworkers with installing the modular steel. This method of lifting with strand jacks provided a safe alternative to typical industry practices and allowed for a continuous positive connection to the loads.
Our commitment to safety and innovation means that our clients can rely on us for top-tier solutions that go beyond industry standards.
