Barnhart

Barnhart recently completed a complex lift using our 𝗠𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗠𝗼𝗰𝗰𝘀® to install three major components beneath a steel structure that was never designed for vertical lifting loads.

The project required weeks of engineering, planning, and coordination to manage tight clearances, strict deflection limits, and load stability throughout the work. One component weighed 110,000 pounds, was elevated 30 feet in the air, and was set with less than one foot of clearance.

From gantry staging and custom catch plates to slide track and adjustable saddles, this project showed how Barnhart engineers solutions for lifting challenges that demand more than standard equipment.

Great job to all teams involved!

Leadership transitions matter, especially to customers who depend on consistency, safety, and practical solutions for complex work.

Week 2 of is focused on Roadway Safety, a topic that matters deeply to our team. 🚛

Barnhart crews travel across the country to support some of the most complex heavy lift and transport projects in the industry. Whether they are hauling heavy equipment, moving between jobsites, or heading home after a long day, every mile matters.

Roadway safety starts with the basics: slow down, stay alert, check your surroundings, and never assume the other driver sees you.

Heavy haul in Barnhart Red.

Our Houston team received two vessels ship-side at the Port of Houston and safely transported them to Formosa Plastics in Point Comfort, Texas.

A 14-line THP and 9-axle STZ worked together to keep the move safe, efficient, and on track.

Yesterday, we brought our Rigging Demonstration Trailer to Tennessee Valley Authority Sequoyah Nuclear Plant to show teams how engineered rigging tools and concepts can help improve safety, reduce labor hours, and lower maintenance costs.

Live demonstrations help teams visualize better options before the work begins.

Contact your Barnhart representative to schedule a demo at your facility.

June is . 🦺 Safety is one of our core values and a culture our teams have been building for decades.
