They found it remarkable that the company designed the permanent elevators to follow the sharp curve inside limited space within the concrete opening of the pylon, without much space to maneuver, or turn, or change position.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Special Projects Group Division of AGF Access Group, led by Alex&nbsp;Di&nbsp;Domenico, spent many months in planning and preparation in order to address all the challenges of this spectacular installation.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/groupeagf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/ALH_2017_Pic_2-4.jpg\" style=\"height:240px; width:320px\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<p>Projects initiated by the Special Projects Group combine the expertise of many divisions of AGF Access Group and we are very proud of the outcomes generated by these synergies.

Este a&ntilde;o, el maestro de ceremonias de la cena fue el excepcional Kevin O&rsquo;Shea, el bien conocido Director de Seguridad y Capacitaci&oacute;n de Hydro Mobile.<\/p>\n<p>M&aacute;s de doscientos invitados estuvieron presentes durante las celebraciones para honrar a la gente, los proyectos, la seguridad, el equipo y m&aacute;s.<\/p>\n<p>Aunque los jueces pasaron numerosas horas para clasificar todas las inscripciones, se alegraron con los resultados.<\/p>\n<p>El Proyecto de Acceso del A&ntilde;o &ndash; Plataformas Elevadoras sobre M&aacute;stil fue otorgado al Grupo AGF Access por la reconstrucci&oacute;n del nuevo Puente Champlain.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Los jueces afirmaron que nunca hab&iacute;an visto la instalaci&oacute;n de elevadores permanentes dentro de los dos pilares de la torre principal, ya que el dise&ntilde;o de la torre requer&iacute;a que los elevadores se desplazaran en una esquina pronunciada: una funci&oacute;n de dise&ntilde;o que no exist&iacute;a. Les pareci&oacute; extraordinario que la empresa dise&ntilde;ara los elevadores permanentes para seguir la curva pronunciada dentro de un espacio limitado en la abertura de concreto de la torre, sin mucho espacio para maniobrar, girar o cambiar de posici&oacute;n.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>La Divisi&oacute;n del Grupo de Proyectos Especiales de AGF Access, dirigida por Alex Di Domenico, pas&oacute; muchos meses planeando y prepar&aacute;ndose para enfrentar todos los desaf&iacute;os de estas espectaculares instalaciones.<\/p>\n<p>Los proyectos iniciados por el Grupo de Proyectos Especiales combinan los conocimientos de muchas divisiones del Grupo AGF Access y estamos muy orgullosos de los resultados originados con estas sinergias.
