Removing the Shed

Jack-up barge next to pier

A 100 ton capacity crane on a jack-up barge located next to the pier has lifted the lifeboat shed on to it's deck.

Additional Notes

The shed was cut into two sections prior to lifting and to strengthen it for the lift each section was reinforced with a steel ring beam bolted to the base of the walls.
