Following very positive feedback for substantiation work provided on similar previous projects, Eadon Consulting were requested by a large nuclear processing facility to provide the design and substantiation for a piece of high integrity nuclear...
The Kessock Bridge across the Beauly Firth in the Scottish Highlands is a 1,056m cable-stayed bridge with a 240m main span. The bridge was completed in 1982 and equipped with a moving access gantry suspended beneath the deck. The bridge operator, BEAR Scotland, identified that the access gantry was reaching the end of its safe working life and commissioned the design for a replacement gantry. Recent developments in gantry standards meant that the old design could not be replicated, necessitating a bespoke new structure.
Replacing the conductors between electricity pylons carries many risks, particularly when the transmission lines cross a road or railway. Traditionally, scaffolding structures are erected over the route to protect it in the event that one of the conductors breaks as the new cable is pulled in. This is costly and time consuming.
The project involved the design verification of the high level and truss level access platforms for the Tamar Hanger replacement.
Eadon Consulting, in collaboration with The Spencer Group, designed 14 aluminium access platforms for the Forth Road Bridge. The platforms were designed in aluminium to minimise weight making their handling on site during installation easier and safer.
