After an incident closed the La Salle Causeway on March 30th, 2024, a supporting platform was introduced to hold up the counter-weight for the bridge. Today, June 16th, after a damaged beam had been fully reinforced, Mammoet were able to recover their platform based on four Self-Propelled Mobile Transporters (SPMT). This video showcases the smooth operation involved.

Did you notice that the mobile transporters had enormous go-pro mounts on their ends?!

@Aerosnapper Месяц назад

LOL - I did indeed - GoPro make an industrial camera sized to fit and take the enormous pressures involved !

Are there any archival pictures of the bridge being constructed… It would be interesting to see the equipment used to compare it to the sophisticated equipment available today.

@Aerosnapper Месяц назад

That’s a really good question. I have never seen any. It would indeed be very interesting to make comparisons with modern iron work

Schade dass das Kontergewicht nicht als Pendel aufgehängt wurde. Das würde die historische Brücke zwar etwas "verfälschen" aber viel sicherer machen. ---- Das Kontergewicht hat durch die alte Montierung auch zu dem durchbiegen des Stützbalken geführt. ----- Pendelaufhängung und nicht Beton, sondern Stahl. ----- Aber guter Job

Danke für diese wichtige Beobachtung. Das Design ist patentiert und ziemlich berühmt, aber ich verstehe Ihren Standpunkt - danke fürs Zuschauen

Habe die Kommentare gelesen ----- Die alte Brücke wird demontiert ? Unglaublich, sowas würde bei uns (Deutschland) sofort unter Denkmalschutz stehen und saniert werden. Allerdings mit etwas besserer Technik und neuem Stahl. ---- Da geht echt ein Stück Geschichte verloren - Technikgeschichte ! Immerhin festgehalten in sehr guten Videos - vielen Dank.

Ja unter Denkmalschutz gestellt wird hier in Deutschland schnell. Das heisst aber leider nicht das dann alles mit besserer Technik oder besserem Stahl perfekt saniert wird. In Lübeck zu Beispiel wird seit Jahren an der einer uralten Hubbrücke herum gedoktort und immer wieder gibt es Probleme die zum Ausfall der Technik führen.

I'm new to this channel. What is the reason for removing the bridge? Is it being replaced, or is traffic being permanently stopped?

@Aerosnapper Месяц назад

Welcome to the channel - thanks for dropping by. The bridge is being removed because of safety concerns about its integrity after an incident occurred during maintenance work. Traffic will flow again, but not until a replacement bridge can be introduced.

What is the battery flight time capacity on your drone? It covered a lot of footage! It's a shame that the bridge is going away. 😢 I'm also surprised that they didn't hire Mammoet to simply remove the bridge on a barge. It would be the fastest and least invasive way of demolishing it in my opinion.

@_Hari_Seldon Месяц назад

That would be one big barge

@TheEDFLegacy Месяц назад

@@_Hari_Seldon Wouldn't be the first time, either; Mammoet has done similar previously, hence my suggestion. Without the counterweight, it should be easy.

@Aerosnapper Месяц назад

Thanks for your interest. Any one battery lasts up to about 35 minutes. I have several and select the times to fly back and change them. Since I must always have the drone in sight, it's never very far away.
