Bovis Périgord Successfully Transports and Installs 8 Large-Scale Modules

A Complete Prefabricated Module Handling Operation in Dordogne

Prefabricated module handling in Dordogne requires seamless coordination between transportation, lifting, and installation phases. When oversized structures must be moved and positioned on-site, every step must be carefully planned to ensure safety, efficiency, and compliance with project deadlines.

Recently, the teams at Bovis Périgord, a member of the Groupe BOVIS, successfully completed a large-scale operation involving the transportation and installation of eight prefabricated modules, representing a total of 32 tonnes of equipment handled and positioned on site.

This project highlights the agency's expertise in exceptional transport, heavy lifting, and specialized handling of prefabricated structures throughout Dordogne and the wider Southwest region of France.

A Major Logistics Project for Transporting Prefabricated Modules

The assignment involved transporting and installing eight prefabricated modules destined for assembly at their final location.

Each module featured significant dimensions:

• 11 meters in length;
• 3 meters in width;
• 4 tonnes per unit;
• 32 tonnes transported in total.

Due to the oversized dimensions of the structures, the operation required Category 1 exceptional transport authorization, with a logistics plan specifically designed to meet regulatory and road transport requirements.

Specialized Equipment for Prefabricated Module Handling

To ensure the success of the operation, Bovis Périgord deployed equipment perfectly suited to the project's technical requirements.

Exceptional Transport Using an Open Box Flatbed Trailer

The modules were loaded and transported using an Open Box flatbed semi-trailer, a solution particularly well suited for carrying long and oversized prefabricated structures.

This equipment enabled the safe transport of the modules while complying with all regulations associated with exceptional loads.

Precise Lifting and Positioning with a Scania Crane Truck

Upon arrival at the project site, the modules were unloaded and installed using a Scania crane truck equipped with a 150 tonne-meter lifting crane.

This high-capacity lifting solution enabled precise placement of each module, ensuring accurate positioning while maintaining full control throughout the operation.

The combination of powerful lifting capabilities and the expertise of Bovis Périgord's crane operators allowed the modules to be positioned quickly, safely, and in accordance with project specifications.
