The bridge over ‘t Twiske

This pontoon bridge is located on the outer edge of Amsterdam-North in the small river ‘t Twiske. This stream flows through the Kadoelen neighborhood, popularly called Capie’s Oort because of the many retired captains who used to live there.

Skating fun on the Minnewater

Against the romantic backdrop of the castle “della Faille,” Van Schie laid the foundation for much skating fun in Bruges, Belgium, for the third time in a row.

High-flyers in construction

High above the construction site, they do their work: the impressive tower cranes that move the heaviest loads vertically and horizontally with seeming ease and then lower them into the right place with extreme precision. Their silhouette can often be seen from a great distance above the city skyline.

Sheet pile pit

A proverb could not be more aptly portrayed: “Whoever wants to become a great crane operator must start at the bottom. In construction, this is often literal and figurative. Starting small, gaining lots of experience, then growing into an all-round craftsman.

Soil vacuum cleaner

Earth-moving equipment comes in all shapes and sizes: heavy excavators (radio-controlled or not), crawler cranes, midi-cranes, mini-excavators. Each one is a machine designed for excavating and backfilling soil, digging trenches, reshaping an industrial site or laying sewers.

Flooding A9 near Amstelveen

The A9, the freeway that splits the municipality of Amstelveen in two, is going through a complete overhaul. The road will be deepened and widened over a length of 1.6 kilometers in the coming years. There will be three canopies and the number of lanes on each roadway will go from 3 to 4.

Pull a sheet pile wall

A huge construction project is currently underway in Diemen-Zuid. It’s called: Holland Park Diemen. The section that is more or less completed is already being called “Amsterdam’s new ring of canals.

‘Powerlifting’

Lift, hold high for a moment, deadlift … and lower again. A clever feat of powerlifting, performed by four telecranes from Van Schie. It happened in Woerden, where the middle section of a heavy concrete bridge had to be briefly lifted to let a couple of houseboats through.
