824 Tons Heavy Transport | Transformer High Girder Bridge

[@DrunkenUFOPilot]

The last bit that was edited out is the scene where they finally set that iron behemoth down at the customer's site, and announce "Here's your 300 kilovolt, 25 megawatt three-phase XYZ-5000 transformer!" Then the customer says "300 kilovolt? 25 megawatt? But we ordered a 250 kilovolt, 30 megawatt four-phase XYZ-6000 transformer!" The delivery guy checks his clipboard and says, "Uh.... oops!"

At which point everyone else dives for cover as steam erupts from the foreman's ears.

4:01 what is that?

[@divyanshameta9516]

It's SPMT self propelled modular transporter, this of trailer don't have any drivers cabin, its powered by own engine unit, and controlled through a wired or wireless remote control.

[@haranpramoth2566]

What is the use of middle SPMT on this turning? Why middle axles inserted?

[@MrDriftspirit]

there was a Bridge to Cross for which the Road Departments gave the Obligation to separate the heavy heavy load on more axles. the easiest was was an spmt.

2 Actros ziehen 800t+... wow, höchst beeindruckend, ebenso die Technik und die Leistung der Beteiligten zu Nachtzeiten...

[@kruemelmonster9201]

Ich finde solche grossen Schwertransporte unheimlich spannend. Wie das alles funktioniert und vorallem die Präzision der Fahrer. Wahnsinn. Hut ab. Solche Fahrer haben meinen höchsten Respekt.

[@MrDriftspirit]

ja, Faszination Schwertransport seit 38Jahren bei mir . die Leistung der Fahrer und Mitarbeiter ist dahingehend noch beeindruckender, als dass sie das mitten in der Nacht machen, wo sie oft tagsüber an lauten Orten in einem im Sommer sehr heißen Fahrerhaus schlafen müssen und zudem wahnsinnig viele Stunden im Monat arbeiten... ich hatte es vor 20 Jahren versucht( Transporte bis 4m breite und 26m lange, also winzig im Vergleich zu hier, dafür zu nur ein bf3 dabei und nicht 15 Mann die mitgucken), aber mit dauerhaftem Schlafmangel war ich nach 3 Monaten fix und fertig... Hut ab für alle die diesen Job machen

[@SuperTrucker2019]

Imagine doing a pretrip on this thing. Better yet what the guys in the tire shop say when the driver pulls in needing new tires....LOL

[@MrDriftspirit]

the guys in the shop were doing a salto and do order lots of bee, steaks and book the next vaccation. 180 tyres (without the spmt) with each 10€ for the wallet...

you should Not smoke that much Bluegrass, without you we're probably able to Count till 40 or 48 with the spmt

[@JosephCee]

All that effort, all that time, all that man power, all that heavy/ modern day machinery to move ONE 824 ton piece of equipment, and we're supposed to believe that humans 5,000 years ago moved huge stone blocks with similar mass and weight across the desert?? Thousands of huge stone blocks, mind you. And not only did they move them hundreds of miles but they then managed to stack them hundreds of feet high with geometrical precision. Either ancient civilizations had better and more sophisticated technology than we have today and it got lost or recovered by the government and they're keeping it a secret from the public or these ancient people didnt build the megaliths we see around the world today.

[@hp_3266]

But if you think about it, even if they had better and more sophisticated technology, by moving those stone blocks, some hundred or two hundred men could easily die, and it could take days to carry it, nowadays there are no slaves, no one dies, nor do they take days to transport things of such size... Think about it, today's humanity may be even worse than 5000 years ago, but one thing we've improved on is security, and human rights :)

I wonder how much is the delivery cost 😅

[@MrDriftspirit]

in Relation to the Costs for reneable Energy infrastructure( for which the Trafo ist delivered), its a pitty

Makes you wonder why they don't just BUILD stuff like that ON SITE.

[@MrDriftspirit]

the Costs and amount to built a factory ob Site to built IT on Site would bei much much Higher. and after this one built in Site, everything has to be dismantled to Bring IT to next in Side...so If you are so clever, why dont you do it so? i Bet there were many Road Departments and villages who where Happy about your method...and the poor man Here had Not to Work at nighttine...

[@JL-rx6hl]

i have never understood why the authorities make it so much harder for the firms doing these jobs by making them travel at night. surely daytime travel is safer and easier. Ok a few people might be held up but no doubt these moves are well publicised to give people time to work out a route round it. I also cant see how the first and last six axles on the bogies are taking any weight

[@hp_3266]

I think they're to better distribute the weight, or better maneuverability, or things like that :)

[@deezelfairy]

Because its the only practical time to do it - I wouldn't be surprised if it was a Saturday or Sunday night. Your not 'holding a few people up' , you'd cause total gridlock for miles which believe it or not has economic impacts that runs into millions. Take myself for example, I'm a mobile engineer charged out at £65hr, every hour I spend sitting there my employers loosing £65hr in revenue + my wages - multiply that by many people... What your basically doing is making local businesses take a financial hit so Siemens can make a profit. You'd create havoc for fire/police/ambulance services due to the huge traffic gridlock. And how is the thing going to continue along it's route with the surrounding areas completely gridlocked? Plus would you really want to be doing this with the added pressure of knowing the roads has got to be clear asap? I know I'd rather do it at night where I can basically just concentrate on the task at hand without worrying about the added pressure of doing it in the day - that would encourage rushing the job which is FAR more dangerous.

[@MrDriftspirit]

@@deezelfairy in some Casey you are absolutely right, but there are a Lot of extra huge Transports in Germany at day time . i live in Germany and beeing heavy haulage Fan since nearly 40 years.. and in france as in Australia and canada, its ONLY allowed in daylight. and If you have a closer Look at heavy haulage Videos from These countries, your worries for Traffic Chaos are not so huge as you wrote or predict. Not every extra huge Transport Runs in Rush hours at the mainly used roads in a Metropole. more than 50% of them are in the countryside where more often the infra structure is easier with These dimensions without dismantling every light and crossing Pole to Pass through. Only the middle Dimension Transports run mainly between 22 and 6 o clock...
