During The Construction of The SMC Cement Batching Plant in Calatagan, Batangas: A 500T Terex-Demag CC2500-1 Crawler Crane in Operation

The Mayon Machinery (“MMRI”) team together with MOF (“MOF Company Subic, Inc.”) has recently completed another project at the site of the SMC cement batching plant by successfully transferring heavy kiln shells from the barge using 500T TEREX-DEMAG CC2500-1 crawler crane.

Project Overview

San Miguel Corporation (“SMC”) is one of the largest and most diversified conglomerates in the Philippines, originally founded in 1890. Its cement business has been conducted through its subsidiaries for over 50 years and has a total nominal annual production capacity of approximately 17.5 million MTPY of finished cement. To reduce dependence on imports and avoid delays in the delivery of critical infrastructure projects in the region, SMC has started construction of one of its cement batching plants in Calatagan, Batangas.

In preparation for the lifting of the heavy kiln shells, our team has been coordinating with the MOF from the planning stage through to the practical process.

The MMC REBECAH barge cannot position itself as shown in the lifting plan, so MOF instructed the team with the new plan and positioned the barge alongside the jetty receiving platform.

Placing steel mats for the superlift tray in preparation for lifting the heavy kiln shells with a working radius of 24.5 meters, after which the barge will move forward to approach the next item to be lifted.

Locating the crane on the jetty required a high degree of precision. The positional constraints relating to the special steel mats combined with the lift capacity requirements, led the team to select a 500T TEREX-DEMAG CC2500-1 crawler crane to perform heavy lifting duties.

The Terex-​Demag CC 2500-1 Crawler Crane has a 500T lifting capacity with a maximum boom length of 84 m and a derrick length of up to 139 m. This crane has an exceptional boom system optimized for high lifting and superlift operation. Its counterweight, superstructure, and superlift tray all add up to a total weight of 375 tons.

Outcome

MMRI met all of the challenges the clients faced and at a fraction of the cost of larger alternatives. Our fleet of rental cranes, the largest in the Philippines and Asia region, is designed to be versatile and adaptable to different sectors, in particular the loading of heavy items from barge to jetty without the aid of a barge crane.

Silent and Vibration-Free Installation at First Philippines Industrial Park (FPIP)

We have recently completed a fantastic installation of sheet pile walls at the site of CCT Constructors Corporation (CCT) – a general contractor for Brother Industries Philippines, Inc. Factory Building Expansion.

The construction consisted of using an F111 Silent Piler, capable of handling 400mm wide sheet piles, to install U-shaped sheet piles (17–27 m long) to form retaining walls in the construction of a new factory building.

The Press-In Method for sheet piling installation was specified in the project plans due to the adjacent proximity to the existing factory.

Implant™ Method Adopted for Use in Pasig-Marikina River Channel Improvement Project (PMRCIP)

Giken Implant Structure – the necessary for disaster prevention and/or mitigation

Aims to further mitigate flooding due to the overflow of Pasig and Marikina Rivers, thereby facilitating urban development and enhancing the sustainable environment along the river, the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) in partnership with the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) was started implementing the project from the year 2000 to present. The Japanese contractor Toyo Shimizu Joint Venture, consisting of Toyo Construction. Co., Ltd. and Shimizu Corporation, has carried out the improvement project by widening and dredging the river as well as constructing embankments, river walls, and drainage facilities by the advanced Implant™ Method developed by GIKEN which is introduced and supplied by Mayon Machinery. This method is adopted in executing Silent Piler press-in and extraction F111 which is vibration-free, noise-free construction, without interfering with the lives of residents, and the accuracy of construction. With this method, piles are also held at a lower position and closer to the tip so that force is transmitted properly down the pile when pressing it into the earth. Displacement of the tip of the piles is less likely as well, which reduces the need for corrective action, making this method of construction highly accurate and fast.

Supplying Large Cranes for the Philippines’ First Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Project in Barangay Ilijan

As the country is transitioning to cleaner energy sources such as natural gas, the Department of Energy (DOE) has crafted the Natural Gas Roadmap to establish a world-class, investment-driven, and efficient natural gas industry to make it the preferred fuel for end-use subsectors. The Ilijan LNG Import Facility Project located in Barangay Ilijan, Batangas City, Batangas from Atlantic, Gulf & Pacific International Holdings (AG&P), together with Linseed Field Power Corp., is in line with this goal which is to supply clean and reliable liquefied natural gas to the adjacent Kepco Power Plant and to other industries (through future expansion). In doing this, the Project will contribute to the national economy, improve the quality of life of the people and meet the projected need for power in the Luzon grid.

Looking to bring in liquefied natural gas (LNG) “for the first time” to the Philippines, this LNG terminal is currently building with a great quantity of heavy equipment to aim for its commission this December.

Mayon Machinery (MMRI) has participated in this LNG project as playing a partner of Joel Chavez Equipment Rentals Corporation in supplying large cranes such as 750t Crawler Crane, 160t Truck Crane, 100t All-Terrain Crane, 70t Rough Terrain Crane.
