From time to time cement and lime plants have the need for special devices to accomplish one-time or abnormal maintenance functions. The Satellite Cooler Scaffolding pictured above is an example of one of those situations.

Problem:

The Satellite Cooler at Ash Grove Cement in Seattle, Washington was being converted from castable lining to a brick lining. This required the removal of castable anchors by burning off the fasteners from the outside diameter of the cooler. Ash Grove needed a safe and efficient way for workers to work on the cooler vessel while in place some three stories above ground.

Solution:

In three days Bricking Solutions designed and delivered the scaffolding pictured above to the plant. The scaffolding consisted of a semicircle aluminum fixture with traveling ladders on either side of the cooler tube. The fixture was hoisted by a mobile crane to the top of a cooler tube and temporarily welded to the cooler tube. The workmen are then tied off to the fixture and used the movable ladders to access the circumference of the tube. This provided for a safe and efficient way to burn off the fasteners holding the castable anchors.

Justification:

• The use of the scaffolding increased the speed of the repair decreasing outage time

• Decreased the charge for the mobile crane because the work proceeded faster

• Reduced the labor cost for man hours needed to complete the job

Features:

• Light-weight durable aluminum construction

• Movable ladders

• Aluminum walkway
