Crane Installation & Inspections
Job Description:
Alltech Engineering was selected by a Minnesota hoist provider to install a replacement hoist at the Minnesota State Capitol Rotunda. This historical project required the existing hoist and chandelier at the center of the Rotunda to be lowered and the existing hoist to be replaced with a new hoist.
The project required careful planning, set up, and lowering of one of Minnesota’s finest historical and architectural pieces. Once the hoist and chandelier were lowered and the new hoist installed, the hoist was load tested. Finally, the chandelier was connected and raised to its original position. To ensure that it was functioning properly, the chandelier was illuminated, something that is only done a few times each year.
