3.9.11 Approach Ramp Transport Frame
3.9.11.1
The approach ramp transport frames are lifted using the bridge module lifter in its widest
position and with the main lifting beam positioned across the approach ramps.
3.9.11.2
The bridge module lifter is connected to the four wire lifting slings two on each side of the
approach ramp transport frame. All the slings are connected to the hooks on the bridge
module lifter.
3.9.11.3
The two frames are lifted as one initially (Figure 3. 40 (A)). Once one frame is fitted to the
required ramp module, either left or right of the centerline, the top frame is lifted from the
bottom transport frame (Figure 3. 40 (B)), by disconnecting the lower frame's wire slings
(1 & 2) and lifting the top frame into its required position on the other side of the ramp
module centerline.
