During the planning process, Mammoet realised that the preferred bolstered load trailer configuration for road transport of the largest column would not be approved by the Texas Department of Transportation as it would overload two bridges along the route.
The standard solution for increasing the footprint of the trailers would be to add dollies that extend out from the sides of the trailers and push down to increase the trailer’s overall footprint, spreading the load more evenly over a larger area. Unfortunately, the width of the bridges in question would not accommodate the addition of traditional dollies.
