Client Overview

A leading contractor in Saudi Arabia required a safe and efficient access solution for façade installation on a major commercial and leisure development in Riyadh.
The project involved installation at approximately 20 metres height, with tight timelines and high productivity requirements.

Equipment Supplied

  • 31 mast climbers, including double-decker configurations
  • Combination of twin and single mast setups

Project Challenges

  • Installation of façade panels (~3.5m vertical) requiring coordinated access across multiple working levels
  • Need to support multiple teams and materials simultaneously
  • Traditional scaffolding limited efficiency and increased setup time
  • Requirement to accelerate installation while maintaining safety and control

Solution Provided

Byrne delivered a mast climber solution engineered to match the façade installation requirements.
Double-decker configurations were used to support simultaneous work across multiple levels, aligned with the façade panel height and installation sequence.
Extended platform configurations allowed concurrent teams to operate efficiently on each unit, reducing repositioning and improving workflow continuity.
Byrne managed engineering design, mobilisation, and installation, with all units deployed within 27 days to meet project milestones.

This Solution Offered

  • Parallel work across multiple teams, accelerating installation cycles
  • Reduced reliance on scaffolding, lowering setup time and site congestion
  • Improved material handling and workflow efficiency at height
  • Stable and safe working platforms aligned with façade requirements

Operational Support

Byrne provided continuous on-site support throughout the project:
  • Daily technical support for 31 mast climbers
  • Operator training delivered to 18 site personnel
  • Ongoing inspection, maintenance, and troubleshooting
  • Average response time of 2.5 hours
  • Equipment uptime maintained at approximately 97%

Result

  • Installation speed improved by approximately 33% compared to traditional scaffolding/cranes
  • Enabled parallel work across multiple teams, reducing installation cycle time
  • Daily output increased from 04 to 09 panels
  • Labour efficiency improved by approximately 62%, since lesser labour was used due to more dependency on these mast climbers.
  • Reduced dependency on scaffolding/cranes and associated setup time
The project is progressing on schedule with stable and efficient operations.
