Baltimore Key bridge collapse: Largest crane on Eastern Seaboard in place to clear wreckage
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 мар 2024
- The largest crane on the Eastern Seaboard was being transported to Baltimore so crews on Friday can begin removing the wreckage of a collapsed highway bridge that has halted a search for four workers still missing days after the disaster and blocked the city's vital port from operating.

To say this is the largest crane on the eastern seaboard is a joke. That is just a land crane.
They ( news 🤡) can’t stop telling bullshit.
Correct - they need the much larger ocean-going cranes that are mounted to a much larger barge. These are used to assemble oil platforms. The dangerous part will be cutting the bridge into pieces small enough to fit on a barge for removal.
@@lorenwilson8128 they need to be careful with that operation cutting that bridge incorrectly could cause serious consequences
Chesapeake 1000 has arrived today around 5 AM yet there isn't a single glimpse of it in this video. Yet they spend an hour showing a tracked Liebherr LR1300 on a barge lol, what a fail...
@@fullraph The news will always get things wrong in these situations 🙄
That crane is a liebherr 1300. It's a 330 ton capacity crane and is not the large crane that is coming. Probably just there as an assist crane.
probably to pick up smaller debris, maybe shipping containers, assist in lifting crew or equipment.
Chesapeake 1000 has arrived today around 5AM yet there isn't a single glimpse of it in this video, what a fail...
the power lines have more protection than the bridge did...
The power lines have been properly maintained. The bridge, however, was built (1977) when cargo ships were only 1/4th as big as
MV Dali. My question at this stage would be: Why were updated protective measures for the Key Bridge not updated over the years as ships got bigger, along with the risks that go with collision?
@@rocistone6570 and while finished in 77, was likely designed around 70-72 so definitely back when ships were smaller and not as wide either.
And finally, as I understand it, they’re adding dolphins to the Delaware Memorial Bridge…decades later.
Well, the real question is, after Bethlehem Steel and the ship yard were closed, why didn't the ports start moving to that area on the other side of the bridge?@@rocistone6570
@@rocistone6570 I did some math's and at 100 000 tons, doing 8 knots, the Dali presented an actual weight of 402 000 tons to that bridge pillar. I don't think there's any man made structure on earth that wouldn't get dislodged by such a hit. Those power lines would have come down and so would have the channel markers.
@@fullraph per ntsb briefing, the bridge is a type without reduency (and a lot of bridges in US are still such...).
More modern bridges tend to be built both with those dolphins or similar protectors to try and take the impact and reduency so if one part fails, the rest can take the load on so if they can survive the hit. Iirc
If that is the largest crane they can muster, they are in trouble
It's absolutely not, it's just a tracked Liebherr LR 1300. Who ever filmed this is a complete idiot. Chesapeake 1000 arrived this morning around 5 yet there isn't a single glimpse of it in the video.
The true lifting crane that is arriving soon is The Donjon Marine owned : 1.) Chesapeake 1000 Crane Barge
(capable of lifting 1,000 short tons with its 231 ft-long boom
and
2.) Tug, Atlantic Enterprise, pulling it.
You can find a photo of it on the internet.
Just type in the owner and the crane’s name as I’ve listed.
The Donjon Marine owned Chesapeake 1000 Crane Barge is exactly the WRONG kind of crane for this work.
Over kill. Too slow.
And that barge mounted land crane we see here is pathetic!
Google Manson Construction Company Derrick 24 for the crane that is ideal.
@@DennisMerwood-xk8wpI can agree with that
MONEY MONEY MONEY........"""MMOONNEEYYY"""
Where do you start this project? How much planning is required before it begins? Unreal!!
A LOT of planning!!
I always thought the bridge was scary how it was such a steep climb to the center of the bridge
If they replace it with a suspension bridge, the arch will probably be a lot higher.
Took NYS 7 looooooooooooong years to replace Tappan Zee bridge, I won't hold my breath to see this bridge be rebuild in less than 5 years.
They can spend $61 billion that they were going to give to ukraine. Money much better spent here.
LARGEST crane on the east coast ? YOU MUST BE JOKING ! THATS A TOY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
let me say this, this bridge reminds me of the rt 440 outerbridge crossing in nj which needs to be upgraded yesterday .
This has to be a crane used to assemble the large one.
What you showed is absolutely not the "Largest crane on eastern seabord". What you spent so much time showing is the Liebherr LR1300 a large but very common tracked crane. Chesapeake 1000 has arrived this morning, why didn't you show it?
The Versabar 10,000 is what's needed. Did great job on the Golden Ray in South Carolina. It is now in the Gulf and I don't believe it is in use at this time.
COMMANDEER BIGGEST CRANES
Good idea. Probably enough bridge section would need to be removed by other methods so the Versabar could position on the remaining section. Definitely would speed things up and improve safety. Awesome that it can transport between the Gulf and South Carolina. If it can do that, then it should be able to get to Maryland before hurricane season.
Most likely a supporter crane for the much bigger crane that will arrive as that crane is just a land crane
Nope. This was the closest crane available. It’s been working on the Chesapeake Bay bridge for weeks now.
Hopefully the cranes are very steady on these big ponts! Remember the cranes who lifted a bridge in Alphen aan de Rijn ? Those cranes were also on ponts
This is not the largest crane on the eastern seaboard. It depends on how they want to do it but were it me, large sections of the bridge would be lifted onto large barges and floated to the shore for demolition. Need something McDermott sized, Lampson Transi-Lift sized, American 11320 Sky Horse or a couple Manitowoc 4600's. In the world of heavy lift, this isnt all that big of a project.
Excellent professional work by the 【INDIAN Captain 】 👍👍👍👍👍👍
From now on, USA will have a new bridge in few years after the Baltimore Key bridge collapse.
Many thanksssssssssssssssssssss to this 【INDIAN Captain 】 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Bless these workers. They have their work cut out for them.
Why were there no IMPACT BARRIERS around the bridge supports??.............That is STANDARD BRIDGE CODE!!!
Exactly what they did in Tampa Bay with the replacement when the original bridge came down under same circumstances.
The company should be out of business and sued for the faulty maintenance and two not having tug boat escorts and being mandatory of this size ship and previous maintenance failures in fix since around 2015 that's poor transportation business! And cost to clean up the mess now and fast and looking for survivors!
When you think about the massive amount of steel, concrete and roadway that is also underwater, and must be broken up before it can be lifted and put on a barge.....the scale of this clean up is astounding. Add to it that they must be extremely careful until the rest of the road crew are recovered. Lord only knows where they are at this point.
Where are all the cranes?
This crane will be used to move equipment in place as the heavies move into position. They will need dozens of welders and people to operate them. Cutting crews, divers, barges, cranes, tugs will be working non-stop 24/7 from now on. Just providing the lighting will be a challenge. Not to mention mitigating danger for casulties during the process. It goes without saying this job is a heavy lift. Maybe if available an off shore mega drilling rig those guys are huge. Comments please.
So this is why the National Debt is so insanely rediculous.
The Crane is in the wrong location first they must remove the damaged cargo then work on freeing the ship.
Nothing compared to herman the german in California.
I'm seeing the Baltimore is showing up there..I figured on the Annapolis. Ive never seen the Baltimore work before..McClean is good local company
BRAVE CRANE OPERATORS/TUG BOAT CREW. GOD BLESS AND KEEP YOU SAFE.
that's a damn barge with a crane sitting on it get a acrane that is a ship idiots I know they are prolly on the way but dam people should not be led to believe this is the largest crane on east coast that size crane can be hired and placed on a barge anytime. A ship crane must sail so say the the best we can do until more equipment arrives would be enlightening possibly to convey to your readers.
FAKE NEWS IS WEAK
I was wondering why my Temu package is so late
I think they should have brought in the Island Victory support ship Or Navy Salvage ships for this.
Way overkill. Google Manson Construction Company. Derrick E P Paup.
How many bodies are in those shipping containers?
click bait!
I seriously have a phobia of bridges. Tunnels that go under water too. I don't travel much lol. Feel safer flying
Why are they not working to clear the main channel.
It may be the biggest crane on the eastern seaboard, but is it big enough to do the job?
Thats it? Thats the largest barge crane on the east coast? That thing is tiny. The US has fallen so so far behind in capacity in various industry. Such a shame.
The last I checked that not the largest crane out there it doesn't have the capability to lift that bridge what they need to do is reach out to the people who operate the heerema sleipnir which is the largest crane out there
1000 tons of lifting capacity is not that bad at all. There are larger crane vessels such as the Sleipnir. However, the Sleipnir is located in Rotterdam. Over 4000 nm from Baltimore. In addition, the Sleipnir has a draft of 36 meters. That's probably way too much for this location. The problem is that almost all larger crane vessels are currently in the North Sea. The Seven Borealis, a 5000 ton crane vessel, is currently the closest in Bridgetown Barbedos. But that too is still 1800 nm to Baltimore
I hate to put it this way, but having not found most of the bridge work crew, they need to watch the sea gulls. If you see them going crazy in the next few days, flocking around something in the water, it could be a body... prayers for the family of the missing. From an old salt.
very doubtful this is the "LARGSST CRANE".... thats small AF... the port of MTL has one that's 10x this size lol
They must not destabilize that ship. And no one seems to be addressing leakage, if any.
There's a boom around the ship. It was installed only hours after the accident.
These drone images are lousy. Why can't they just keep the drone still? It is annoying that they keep circling around. Put a camera on the crane instead.
Singapore could help with a huge crane "Asian Hercules " Max Load 3200 ton.
Rember that the steel would be under tension and twisted so when cut it could flex and explode
The way that bridge went down you would think the steel was made in China. That Crane is not looking so big.
LOL RIGHT
You really dont understand engineering. This bridge was built decades before chinese steel existed. Idiot.
That crane is pathetic. Google Manson Construction Company. Derrick E P Paup.
The bridge was build in 1970's! No steel was made in China exported to USA!
This bridge will be in china soon.
south north were connecting
Dangerous and difficult., they are going to need a lot of support.
Question: How deep is the water the bridge stands in??
Shipping channel is dredged to 50 ft.
@@JohnHallgren thank you John
about 100 feet at the center.
@@georgeveghte6459 wrong….Maryland government site says 50 ft channel depth.
Pitiful reporting! 🤷🏻♂️
Who is paying the bill for this?
many heavy duty crane vessels are available globally to clear the shipping lane fast
Also there are also Plasma cutting robots can make precise cuts in a variety of metals and thicknesses. These plasma cutters use nitrogen, which enables them to cut steel, aluminum, and other metals.
No sound from reporter
That is the biggest crane on the eastern seaboard? The east coast has a different definition of large then the rest of the world. Try working in an oil refinery, those a large cranes.
People died here, yet the reporter acts as if shes in a carnival
Wait the ship was there in the first couple clips and then it's gone and the crane appears cuz they cut that part out
chief went
? in the wind!
The fucking power lines have better impact protection than the bridge pylons. Cheaped out on the construction, knowing full well megaships traverse that waterway, and now the federal government is going to pay to build a new one. Screw that, make the state pay for it, they are the ones who built a poorly defended bridge in the first place.
No mega container ships existed in nineteen seventy seven
Mammoet heeft veel grotere kranen dit is maar kleintje
True, but the bigger ones are on the way. Are any Mammoet cranes stationed in U.S.A. waters or are they in Europe?
Great video. The lanes of the road way on ship give a idea of scale. How could anything be protected from a ship of that size or larger hitting it. You would need something the size of a pyramid. Dolphins are just window dressing no matter the size. Tug escorts is the answer or we will just do the chance game. In the long run the chance game is cheaper my calculator says.
Well this was boring.
Be careful with your silly thumbnail pics. People take them literally.
This is apsolutly being handled so dam poorly and disgrace where is the search and rescue people after this happen and in any survivors! And why did coast guard not get called to not let ship inter the port without tug boat escorts and pre check of ship or send back where came from!
No sound from helicopter
That is a wimpy crane!!
YOU KNOW FOR SHIPS CAPTAINS AND CREW MEMBERS THER EISA OTHER TYPE OF CROUT THEY HAVE TO GO TOO IT IS CALLED THE MARTIME COURT FOR SHIPS..... AND THEY ARE VERY VERY HARD...
One crane to fix all this what a joke
Bullshot. I've got a larger crane in my backyard, in Baltimore.
The simis picture all😭
Just another distraction
Extremely boring video
Oh, look, the Earth is round?!🤪
I just left Times Now also showing the mishap , and it's night there . in yours its day break there .
Baltimore needs someone who knows what there doing they are clueless
So I wonder which engineer, beurocrat, or environmental nut ball went against pier protection for this bridge?
Tiny cranes
It looks like the ship was so loaded with containers that they couldn’t see where they were going.
Looks like a job for the US Navy and some demolition experts don't you think.😗🤔🤠
nation a witt
VESTAL lil bit gs graced
They're using a land crane to fish out a bridge in water?
Whose bright idea was this, Pete Bootijugger?
disgrace vestal achievments
What a waste of time this video is.
I've heard that the mayor is proposing naming the new bridge The George Floyd Memorial Water Crossing.
GHOSTS
Let Mammoet oder Smit Salvage do the job
I could care less about the cranes and more about why the American tax payers are on the hook for the reconstruction. Why isn't the container shipping company not paying for it.
Do you see how far apart the power line bases are? Easily avoided by large ships, then look at the vehicle bridge, why so close when engineers can design better.
It seems the power line bases are that far apart due to the length of the wires.
The main span was 1200 ft so not that close…gave about 300 ft on each side of the two shipping lanes.
Which is equivalent to new Sunshine Skyway after old bridge was similarly hit.
@@JohnHallgren I lived in South St. Petersburg when the Sunshine Skyway was hit, and now I'm in Baltimore, working in Sparrows Point when the Key Bridge was hit. Yikes.
@@kristinkasprzak1898 um, so which bridge is next when you move?
The cars dont travel on the power lines, unless they're electric.
🌟🤔🌟
i here nothing what see talk about
Bringing in weeks marine
Bring in Manson Construction Company. Derrick E P Paup.
part to I u realRAEL tite they rite that spot
Just an idea. Can a big ship like Dali be temporarily used as a bridge-span post to quickly reopen auto traffic while rebuilding the bridge for years?
No.
ship ta Ukraai cry cryin boo
What a load off crap
Tourism will boom to Baltimore. What it looses on the ports will be made up by the sightseer.
EW YORK SHOULD FIX YA ya
Seriously? This is the crane they sent? Failure already
And your engineering degree is from where?
This is a perfect reflection of the administration who is taking the decisions.
