Transportation of steel constructions is not just based on loading, unloading and transportation. It is a complex process in which proper logistics are also necessary. This is especially true for non-standard size structures. Edax-Group offers our own transportation and trained staff.

Transportation of steel constructions at Edax-Group
The transportation of steel constructions, as well as other oversized loads, can involve a number of problems. One such factor can be road conditions. Overpasses and bridges that are too low can be problematic, as well as the terrain itself that prevents passage. This makes the role of logisticians in the transportation of steel structures indispensable. Their tasks include, first of all, the development of a suitable route that will allow the transport to be completed efficiently and safely.
quality and experience
We have been transporting steel constructions and products for years
Principals should be prepared to give very precise details of the construction, such as a detailed description, technical drawings or exact parameters. Already at the very beginning of planning such a service, it is necessary to choose the appropriate means of transportation. It is advisable to start consultations as early as possible, so that while the structure is still being manufactured, all requirements allowing the transportation of steel structures can be agreed upon and, if necessary, a given project can be modified accordingly, for example, by dividing it into parts, if possible.

Transportation of steel constructions - cargo security
In transporting individual steel construction components, it is first and foremost important to secure them properly. This is primarily influenced by the nature of the product being transported. A different approach should be taken to materials that are prone to corrosion, and a different approach should be taken to galvanized steel or steel that is otherwise protected from the weather. Heavy and compact items should also be handled differently, while a different approach is required for delicate, lightweight structures that should be separated during transport to prevent damage. Appropriate preparation should also be made for loading and unloading of structures. At each stage, i.e. equally in the case of loading, the transport itself, as well as unloading and possible assembly, it is important that the cargo being transported is not damaged in any way. An important element in ensuring the safety of transportation is also the drivers themselves. With proper training and experience, they have a driving style that allows them to protect steel constructions from potential damage associated with improper driving of a vehicle with oversized cargo. That is why it is so important to choose the right company that specializes in transporting oversized cargo. In addition to steel constructions, other steel products are also transported, primarily rebar, wire, sheet metal, sections or bars of steel. However, these are usually characterized by standard dimensions. Transporting this type of cargo is usually not as complicated and does not require as much specialization in transportation as in the case of large-scale steel constructions.
