Wilmington, NC

This is the view from the top of the lift span bridge in Wilmington,NC. Stacy Brewer and his crew are transporting steel plates to add to the counterweight of the bridge. This will allow us to counterbalance the weight of the work platform being suspended from underneath the bridge.

Beaufort Co., NC

Lanford Brothers is rebuilding the swing span portion of this Beaufort County project. This part of the bridge actually rotates around to let the ships through. Stacy Brewer, Superintendent, and his crew are replacing most of the structural steel and repairing the 4 main girders. We are topping it off with a new 5” deep steel grid floor and a new paint job.

Fort Pickett, VA

Bobby Meadows' crew had some challenges on the army base job at Fort Pickett.  They ran into some rock when drilling, but they know how to take care of those problems!

Surry, VA

The project required flattening a 210' x 82' concrete slab that had a 3" crown built in the middle.  It was extremely important that the finished product be as flat as possible.  Lanford Brothers milled using a stringline grade control that allowed us to get as close to a true grade as the machine control system would allow.  The slab was milled using our new Wirtgen 2000 with a Moba grade control and a 8mm fine textured drum to produce a smooth finish.  According to Bob Pavlik, Corporate Civil Engineer with Dominion Power- owner of the project, they achieved better results than expected.  He said, "Instead of the 1/4" in 10 feet, it appeared we achieved a finish tolerance of 1/4" in 210 feet!"  John Liles, President of the prime contractor, North Star Construction, told us, "Your willingness to try out the stringline technology on such a challenging project, coupled with your crew's attention to detail and desire to be better than they had to be, really made the project a success."  On this project, Lanford personnel took milling to a higher degree.
