Heavy lifting and installation uses cases in data center projects

Mammoet has supported many data center projects by lifting and installing large numbers of heavy modules and components, such as chillers, cooling units, MV pods, generators, skids, cable racks. Our experience extends far beyond new builds: we also provide tailored maintenance and replacement services that keep facilities running. 

Due to NDAs, we cannot disclose details of specific projects. Instead, we use a fictional scenario based on real project conditions to visualize our solutions.

 

Installation of chiller and dry cooler

 

  • Lifting and positioning concepts

  • Synchronized with delivery sequence

  • Special rigging equipment and traverses

  • Concept for load introduction into structure

  • Skidding solutions for areas unreachable by mobile cranes

 

 

 

 

 

Installation of generators 

 

  • Installation concepts inside a building or steel structure

  • Definition of attachment and pressure points

  • Skidding concept, including load introduction into structure and item

  • Lifting sequences under height restrictions

  • Skidding execution

 

 

 

 

 

Move in strategies

 

  • Limited access points and floor openings

  • Lifting service using tower cranes and mobile cranes

  • Movement and handling on various floors by using rollers and electric forklifts

  • Synchronized with delivery sequence

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Equipment installation

 

  • Delivery of large numbers of items

  • Lifting service using tower cranes and mobile cranes

  • Move-in via loading platforms

  • Temporary storage at floor level

  • Movement and handling on various floors using rollers and electric forklifts

  • Assembly and final positioning of items and units (e.g. fan wall, CRAH, CDU)
