l Majdouie Heavylift Transport and Engineering was established in 1978 with 15 axle lines hydraulic trailers and few bed trailers. Initially, Al Majdouie heavylift transported smaller units and cranes, as was hard to get super heavy loads because market was dominated by American and overcome that barrier. In 1981, fifteen axle lines were added in addition to extension trailers. In 1981, moved 180 tons transformer and generators from Yanbu to Tabuk Power Plant for General Electric. This was the first important move for Al Majdouie Heavylift. Following years it moved power plants from port of Dammam to Baghdad. These two projects of General Electric had helped Al Majdouie to build the base for future project. Since then, Al Majdouie Heavylift Transport and Engineering has grown steadily and now stand as leader, handling over 92% of Heavylift transportation in the market and transported over 4,000 heavvylift units on conventional hydraulic and self propelled trailers and over 20,000 transported over low bed/ extendable trailers. Al Majdouie Heavylift managed by qualified and professional team of Engineers and can offer services from loading the vessel at point of origin and 3 delivery at final destination.

n every transport there are inevitable some operations and/or engineering activities involved. Organizing materials from point of origin to final destination without interruption or delay. This normally involves in positioning of personnel, equipment, spareparts and consumable materials prior to actual transport and installation. On a case to case basis, Al Majdouie Heavylift Transport and Engineering studies each transport to determine the most technically and economically sound solution. The Engineering Department with the help of Operation surveying team, Design Transport convoy or method of transport and erection according to the job specific parameter and depending on their findings. Al Majdouie Heavylift Transport and Engineering concentrate on projects which deal with oversized and overweight cargoes that cannot be transported utilizing conventional methods. Early in initial stages of many projects, MHL Engineers and specialists work closely with the client and their suppliers in order to establish the best possible solution for the transport weights and dimensions. Site and route survey re conducted to determine the most feasible and solution for the transports. In many developing countries, the infrastructure may require significant modifications and upgrades in order to effect the transport. If the client, in conjunction with local authorities, agree to the modifications and upgrades, the divisionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s engineers work with the local contractors to ensure that the modifications are made to specifications in accordance with client authorizations and safety requirements. 9 Prepared & Compiled by: MHL-Engineering LEO & EDWARD Rev.0.0â&#x20AC;&#x201D;201107

Before any shackle is placed into use, the following will be first checked by all concerned Almajdouie Staff at Project Site. 1. Safe working load are plainly stamped on to the shackle. 2. The shackle pin is not distorted and freely screw into the threads. 3. No excessive wear is obvious on the screw pin and thread. Threads shall not have flats showing and it should be easily screwed home to a hand tight position. (hand tight only.) 4. When the shackles pin is screwed into the threaded hole from the side of the shackle, there should be on more than a very slight side wobble. 5. The alignment of the two holes will be usually checked for wear on the untapped hole which elongates the hole making it too large for the pin and when the pin is screwed home. It does not bear on the plain sided hole, causing undue stresses onto the shackle when it is loaded. These shackles shall be scrapped. 25 Prepared & Compiled by: MHL-Engineering LEO & EDWARD Rev.0.0â&#x20AC;&#x201D;201107

A. LOADING INSIDE SHIP A.1 Cargo plan are carefully studied on the manner of loading on the trailer. A.2 Dimensions are fully observed as guide in the size of the trailer and number of axles to be connected and be used. A.3 It is thoroughly studied if single, double, side by side or dolly type of trailer are to be arranged. A.4 Step by step jacking procedure by hydraulic trailer in loading and transporting out of cargo on the ship are relayed to the ship captain and engineer for the ballasting and de-ballasting of the ship.

maintain the ship level with the RO-RO as required by us for transport purposes. A.8 Once half of the weight of the cargo are out of the ship or in the pier, we stop for few minutes waiting for the signal of ship captain to pull it out entirely. This is needed to prevent further accident due to surge of weight transfer on pier and the ship will float and it's level will go higher than the pier level and it might turn of the cargo or accident. A.9 When the cargo are out of the ship, then it will be placed and parked on the lay down area, waiting for custom clearance. B. LOADING OUTSIDE SHIP B.1 Cargo are carefully studied and same step are used as in A.1, A.2, and A.3. B.2 Ship captain are informed that trailer are ready for loading. B.3 Double checking the trailer arrangement for safety loading of cargo. B.4 If the cargo are to be lifted for loading on to the trailer, experienced staff are assigned for cargo placement for correct weight distribution by placing the cargo center of gravity at the center of lengthwise and widthwise of the trailer. 36

B.5 Cargo are safely place on the trailer. Safety lashings are immediately installed by experience crew, driver will not move the trailer until cargo is fully secured and to be instructed by qualified crew. B.6 Once all safety requirements are in place for the cargo, the supervisor will advise the drive to park the trailer on the lay down area, until given the go signal, it was cleared for transport. B.7 In case of off loading many cargo in one shipment and more than the number of trailer available, steel beams and steel stand are to be provided for temporary safe storage. B.8 Once the cargo is to be loaded to the trailer and the cargo is to be put on stands, we immediately place steel beams on equal points depends on the weight and length of cargo. B.9 Then the cargo is transported to the lay-down area where we put it on the stand temporally until given the clearance.
