On June 7, 2010, Westrock's Schwing 41m Separate Placing Boom was removed off of
the 28th floor of Epcor Tower: Station Lands, Edmonton. A total of 29,199m3 was
pumped into Edmonton's newest commercial high-rise. It was bitter sweet to see
the boom flown down 28 floors after completing the last slab, but we are excited
to see which site the pump goes to next.
New Schwing 55m
for Noresask arrives! If you didn't catch it rolling down Saskatchewan’s
highway's on May 18th, 2010, be sure you keep your eyes open! This new 55m-boom
pump rolls on 6 axles, and can reach an amazing 151ft from the front of the cab,
or 181ft straight up! With a theoretical output of 163m3/hr, this pump is sure
to make all Saskatchewan contractors satisfied. This new addition to Noresask's
fleet is in fact, the largest boom pump in the province of Saskatchewan today.
Noremac is going full speed on Edmonton’s newest highway expansion project. The
north Anthony Henday expansion, which includes 27 new bridges, requires a large
fleet of reliable equipment, along with excellent operators to be able to
maintain the tight schedules set out by Flatiron-Graham-Parsons. "When the
light turned green, we were ready to go" -Al Labatch, Noremac's Senior
Operations Manager.
