Construction equipment from Liebherr has played an important role in the project to demolish a bridge in Germany. A fleet of 23 Liebherr machines including excavators, wheeled loaders and dump trucks were used for the clean-up work after major blasting of the Salzbach Valley Bridge in Wiesbaden. Meanwhile, a remote controlled bulldozer from Liebherr was used to carry out the important preparatory work for the bridge demolition job. Because the bridge had been found to be unstable, the contractor decided that the remote control system would be able to keep the dozer operator safe while the machine worked underneath the structure. The Liebherr Werk Telfs (LWT) facility in Austria that manufactures the firm's bulldozers was able to fit a Liebherr remote control (LiReCon) system to one of its models. The machine was then operated from a safe distance and used to prepare the ground underneath the bridge, spreading material so as to protect a rail link from damage. |
