Groundworks for the New Sorting Center of Vanheede Environmental Logistics
html Earthworks for the New Sorting Center of Vanheede Environmental Logistics Challenges and Objectives Alheembouw, commissioned by Vanheede Environmental Logistics, approached Verhelst Aannemingen for the earthworks of the new sorting center. The site was located at the E403, near the Roeselare-Izegem exit. The main objective was to make the site ready for construction through land elevation and soil stabilization, achieving the desired load-bearing capacity. Additionally, the construction site needed to be equipped with a gravel cushion to facilitate the pile foundations and the further construction of the building.
Demolition Work Old Windmills
On March 1st, demolition work began at the site of the Oude Molens in Deinze. This ambitious project, commissioned by 3D Real Estate/Atenor, involved the demolition of an imposing tower with a height of 56 meters. Verhelst Aannemingen eagerly took on this challenge.
A profound and high-level project in the heart of Brussels!
Verhelst Machines recently completed a challenging project for Algemene Bouw Maes in Brussels. We successfully installed a 7032 Wolff tower crane in the heart of the city's European district. The crane has a height under the hook of 65.9 meters and a jib length of 45 meters and had to be placed through an existing building. The installation of the crane was not without challenges. To place the crane, Verhelst Machines had to get the chassis through a narrow opening and then install it in the underground parking garage on floor -5. Once the chassis was in place, extensions were added to go from 6 to 8 meters, providing sufficient stability. We managed to get the job done on time thanks to the extensive expertise and experience of our technicians. Setting up a crane in the heart of Brussels is never easy due to the limited space and the limited permits that are only granted on weekends. Do you need advice on your project?

Construction elevator time: A complex top project with Verhelst Machines
Our client Wycotec is currently working on the restoration of the facade of ZNA Middelheim in Antwerp, and Verhelst Machines provides necessary support. For easy vertical transport, a Geda 1200 Z/ZP Construction Hoist was rented. However, the job was anything but simple, given that the facade does not run straight up. Thanks to the ingenious system of Verhelst Machines, which is custom-made for the client, the construction hoist could still be placed at a relatively far distance from the facade and anchored to the client's scaffolding. It was a challenging project, but the professional approach of Verhelst Machines and the flexible solutions ensured a successful outcome. Verhelst Machines continues to be committed to offering the best and most efficient solutions to its clients. Thanks to years of experience and expertise, we can bring complex projects to a successful conclusion.
