Mammoet
June 2017 - August 2018 / Drafter
Mammoet is a big part of the super heavy lift and transportation industry. Using information collected in the field and reviewing local regulations, I created crane permit drawings with the optimal loading configuration to minimize permitting costs for over the road (OTR) transport of mobile cranes and counterweight. Worked with clients on site to define project scope and create transport, staging, rigging, and lift plans using AutoCAD.
Reviewed oak outrigger pad costs and determined that designing steel outrigger pads in house and outsourcing fabrication provided the largest cost reduction and fastest return on investment. I designed twelve sets of steel crane mats that minimized material and transportation costs while meeting technical specifications. My design reduced the total number of pads needed as well as the total time to deploy. Additionally minimizing the designs weight and taking advantage of steels longevity compared to oak, transportation and replacement costs were reduced.

Technical OTR Permit Drawing for a LTM 1400-7.1 Crane
This drawing along with nearly a hundred others is a prime example of my excellent technical writing skill.
Moved Completed Tugboat Onto Barge with SPMTs
Vessel Pivoting Rig
LTM 1050-3.1 Mobile Crane
This piece of specialized equipment is designed to save time and money by getting a vessel from horizontal to vertical with only one crane instead of the two normally required.
Mobile cranes are the workhorses of the heavy transportation industry, because they are capable of being deployed quickly and completing the majority of small to medium jobs.
