Stacker Truss Conveyor Refurbishment

We helped to remediate a stacker truss to an accelerated timeline to minimise downtime and ensure safety. During a routine structural integrity audit, the existing CV02 stacker truss was found to be severely degraded through corrosion and was taken off-line. Agilitus undertook a detailed option study to investigate potential methods of remediation of the truss that would allow the work to be carried out safely while access to the truss structure and an exclusion zone under the truss was prevented. Following this study, the decision was made to replace the trusses. Our team developed a solution to enable the safe removal of the corroded trusses and ties while retaining the existing trestles and ensuring the work could be performed from above the conveyor. Detailed drawings were successfully produced and delivered on an accelerated timeline to allow construction to occur over a scheduled shutdown period.
