Bobcat equipment vital to redevelopment of former Rossani Barracks
Published 27/2 at 13:08In the San Lorenzo district of Bari, the former Rossani Barracks, were recently developed to provide a public place accessible to the entire community. The work, which began in June 2023, should be completed by the end of 2025. To undertake the work, two Bobcat machines were used, the E55z mini excavator and the S66 compact loader.
The E55z mini excavator, proved particularly suitable for precision work in small spaces. Digging with precision and speed, it created trenches for the reinforced concrete substations that start from the outside and then branch out inside the buildings, thus ensuring the proper installation of the required systems. The E55z also took care of the internal demolition, in particular the removal of the flooring and the crawl space. The E55z is designed to combine comfort and performance in a ZHS (zero house swing) structure, allowing maximum peace of mind when the machine is working close to walls.
The S66 loader has been used for a series of complementary and essential operations. Thanks to its versatility and manoeuvrability, it was used for the rapid and easy movement of waste materials, significantly simplifying cleaning and removal operations. Furthermore, it was essential for the efficient transportation and distribution of the necessary materials in the various sectors of the construction site. This made it possible to optimise the execution times of the works and significantly improve the overall efficiency of the operations, reducing downtime and ensuring a more fluid and coordinated operational flow. Thanks to the high flow hydraulic system as standard, the versatility of the S66 is further improved as it can be used with advanced attachments with greater capacity.
