Reed &
Reed’s substantial equipment fleet is available
to support a great diversity of project needs
– ranging from highway construction to wind farms to hydroelectric
projects to heavy rigging to environmental cleanup
to pile driving, to any number of design-build
services. Our modern and well-maintained equipment ensures
the success of our projects, helping our employees
deliver world-class construction services safely
and on time.
Here is a partial list of our available equipment
resources: |

|
|
|
 |
|
Cranes represent the largest equipment investment
type in our fleet. We currently have more than
twenty cranes. Our crane fleet enables us to drive
piles, place concrete, erect steel, dredge, perform
demolition, work from the water and a myriad of
other tasks. Through this lifting capability,
we are better able to maintain control of schedule
and costs. Instead of being dependent on outside
vendors to provide crane and lifting capabilities,
we control our own destiny and the outcome of
our projects. |

17 Crawler Cranes
|
| 6 Hydraulic/Truck Cranes |
| 3 Boom Trucks |
| |
We took delivery of our first Manitowoc M-16000, a brand new 440-ton crawler crane designed specifically for erecting wind turbines, in January 2008. And we liked it so much we bought another one! Our second M-16000 began arriving in late December 2008 with the last of 18 truckloads delivered in January 2009. We are told that we are the only New England based contractor to own even one of these state-of-the-art machines.

Excavation, grading, hauling, lifting, welding,
compaction – you name it, we have the
equipment to get the job done in support of
critical project objectives. Again, because
we have it in our fleet the cost and availability
for our projects can be optimized. Where our
first-call resources are unavailable, we know
where to turn for supplemental outside resources
to support ongoing operations.
|
|
| 5 Crawler Excavators |
6 Pile Hammers |
| 4 Backhoe/Loaders |
34 Pumps |
| 3 Rubber Tire Excavators |
2 Vibratory Rollers |
| 7 Front-end Loaders |
35 Welding Machines |
| 5 Crawler Dozers & Tractors |
20 Compressors |
| 6 Hydraulic Personnel Lifts |
8 Diesel Generators (40-90KW) |
|

Our
marine fleet gives us the ability and advantage
of performing heavy construction services from
the water. Piers, breakwaters, offshore work,
pile driving, dredging – we have the
push boats, barges, boats and marine gear sufficient
to transition land based cranes, pile driving
and excavation equipment to a water based capability.
In addition, our Woolwich Dockyard boasts a 45
ft by 170 ft deepwater concrete pier plus a 400
ton marine railway for hauling and launching vessels.
The work area consists of several waterfront acres
along with storage and fabrication areas.

| 4 Deck Barges |
2 Push Boats |
| 17 Clamshell Buckets |
5 Work Boats |

Pile
Driving Equipment
|
| |
|
In
the early days, Reed & Reed led the way with
the largest gravity pile hammer known in the U.S.:
a 10,000 pound ram. Since then our trend toward
larger cranes has enabled us to modernize and
upgrade our pile driving equipment. We own
the largest Delmag hammer in Maine, four ICE vibratory
drivers/extractors, several smaller diesel hammers,
augering equipment and yes, we still have that
10,000 pound drop hammer. |
|
| 4 Vibratory Drivers/Extractors |
|
| 5 Diesel Impact Hammers |
|
| 4 Gravity Hammers |

Tractors,
Trailers &Trucks |
| |
|
Because
of our extensive equipment fleet and large material
inventory, our Transportation Department is constantly
on the go. Peterbuilt, Autocar and Mack tractors
haul our equipment from project-to-project. Talbert
low beds, drop decks, high bed and stretch trailers
allow us to move virtually any load safely and
efficiently. Dump trucks and lighter duty trucks
make up the balance of our fleet. |
|
| 6 Highway Tractors |
3 Low Bed Trailers |
| 5 Dump Trucks |
20 Office Trailers |
| 10 Hi-Bed Trailers |
34 Pick-up Trucks |
| 4 Platform Trucks |
|

Specialty
Equipment
|
| |
|
In
our line of work we are always looking for means
and methods of accomplishing tasks safely, using
the fewest resources. Often this translates into
specialty equipment such as hydraulic breakers,
personnel lifts, deep excavation equipment, steel
shearing equipment, crushing, airlifting and custom
designed and fabricated equipment for a specific
job. In addition, we have hundreds of small specialty
tools and machines necessary for the proper completion
of the work.
If it allows us to operate more safely and more efficiently,
we want it in our equipment fleet.
