For the safe and successful transport of special cargoes, a
very clear view and good knowledge of the route that it will
follow is definitely very important. The constant change of
the outdoors conditions as well as the uniqueness of each
cargo, require each time a complete route survey in order
to decide whether the transport is possible and under what
particular circumstances.
Traffic signs and traffic lights are being removed prior to the
transport….

Main boiler is being moved on to barge on SPMT. Slow! Slow!
Safely!

Project summary
1. Main Boiler 19.20M(L) x 12.50M(W) x 15.60M(H), 470 tons,,

3744.00 cbm
Stack Pipes 40.00M(L) x 4.70M(W) x 4.70M(H), 42 tons,
883.60 cbm
2. Kunsan factory / Unlsan factory
3. Period : 2018.10

the giant cargoes 8.6km on public roads, permits were Upon arrival at the final port, careful precision was
required, therefore a route survey was carried out required to maneuver the SPMT through the narrow gates
beforehand to identify all obstacles and street furniture, into installation site. Final leg of the journey was ahead

such as traffic signs and traffic lights, that had to be of us. Extreme care had to be delivered to place cargoes
removed prior to the transport. onto the foundation support beam for which margin of
error allowed SPMT only 5cm.
Stack pipes measured 40m(L) x 4.7m(W) x 4.7m(H) and
weighed 42 tons. Upon arrival at second port, Yoolchon, Although it was a challenging and gruelling enterprise,
cargoes were transported out of factory for loading. SPMT everything came together successfully and the consignee
solution was also selected using single 14 axle line. was impressed with the care and precision that resulted in

the safe delivery of their equipment.
Safety considerations necessitated speeds as low as
possible and the transporter made several stops on
descents to allow for the cooling and inspection of axles
and brakes.
