Reformation Mission SF
One way to deliver precast rammed earth panels uses manpower to go right through the front door, especially useful when there’s no room for a crane or a forklift. We built a portable jib crane to move each 2,000 pound panel from the trailer to the sidewalk and we built a six-wheeled trolley to roll the panels into the store. As you can see, it took three people pushing and one pulling to get the panel up and over the door threshold. The rammed earth arrived safe and ready for installation in a retail store that could have never used the material with traditional on-site form setting methods.
