Bridge, Infrastructure and Heavy Civil Project Access
Klimer’s KPM-8 mast climber may be twinned to achieve platforms up to 141′ (42.98 m) long, allowing decks to span from pier to pier and providing full access to the work surface. Industry-leading design dramatically increases production over other types of access. Increase safety, efficiency and profits on your next bridge pier restoration, cable-stayed bridge, dam or utility project.
Efficient access for your next bridge, dam or utility project
Multiple crews work effectively from one access solution – maximizing time, reducing schedule challenges and increasing profits. Klimer’s heavy-duty KPM-8 boasts fast travel speeds of up to 30′ (9.14 m) per minute and heavy-duty capacities keep trades, tools and material at optimal working height. Savings on challenging bridge work are realized quickly with fewer trips. Klimer’s tie-in design allows platforms to be positioned back from the pier facade for uninterrupted access to the facade. Gas-powered engines eliminate the hazard of hanging cables and increase site organization and containment.
Work such as concrete chipping, forming, pouring, drilling of anchors and concrete replacement is performed directly from the work platform, at optimal working height. Klimer’s versatile design allows platforms to be twinned at lengths up to 141′ (42.98 m) providing access from pier to pier. Enjoy increased access to work area and exposure to facade.
Klimer’s pedestal base can be engineered to fit into tight or limited spaces and may be customized for specific conditions. Our engineering, drafting and consulting services deliver superior access and ensure superior profitability on your next bridge, infrastructure or heavy civil project.
Restoration Project Access
Fewest tie-ins and highest freestanding capability help reduce labour costs and preserve building facades. Swing stage and scaffold is no match for Klimer’s heavy capacity for removing large volumes of material.
Restoration Access Engineered for the Best Results
Restoration contractors searching for an all-in-one solution turn to Klimer mast-climbing work platforms where the combination of brute strength, fast travel speeds and unmatched freestanding capabilities deliver on all of your access needs.
