The overhead crane for AWT4 is hoisted
On 26 April 2017, the overhead crane was hoisted for the fourth All Weather Terminal for our customer VCK in Amsterdam. We already reported that the first truss was placed on April 18th. In short, there are good progresses around this beautiful project.
This new covered transshipment terminal will have a 30.5 metre entry width and will be 100 metres long. The terminal will get an overhead crane that is able to lift 50 tonnes. The overhead crane will have a span of 46.5 metres. This terminal will be the largest of the four terminals that VCK will soon operate. The terminal will become operational as of 1 August 2017.
VCK is active in the transport sector. VCK's Scandia Terminal in the port of Amsterdam is a multimodal port terminal that specializes in handling roll-on / roll-off ships and Lift-on / Lift-off ships.
