Benefits of the Heavy Lift Bag System

  • Transports large structures over ground where a variety of rough terrain
  • Bags operate at 10-18 psi which prevents high pres sure blow outs
  • Bags are operated by a manifold which can control minor adjustments in the load to all bags simultaneously or individually
  • Cost effective way to move heavy structures

This project consisted of moving a grounded, 730 ton Crane Barge 100 yards back  into the river. Couvillion Group’s engineering department devised and implemented a plan using 20 (1 meter X 10 meter) cylindrical lift bags with the assistance of four D6 Dozers to turn the barge and move the barge into the river.
