    Exclusive - Preservation project to lift wall to save Banksy rat painting from destruction, London, UK - 2019
    Aerial construction specialists and demolition experts use a huge crane to carefully lift intact, a twenty five ton, two-story wall, to preserve a famous Banksy rat image which has been covered up for years. Teams from specialist companies have spent over six weeks cutting around the artwork and fitting custom made eight ton steel supports to enable them to save the historic piece of art. Work has started on the construction of a new twenty seven floor hotel on the site of the old Foundry building in Shoreditch, east London, and a condition of the planning permission was to preserve the historical Banksy graffiti. A second section of the painting, an image of a TV being thrown through a broken window has already been cut out and moved separately. After the hotel construction is complete the two parts of the Banksy painting will be displayed on the hotel. Our pictures show the stages of work to protect the image, culminating in the lifting of the three story wall by crane.

    Exclusive - Preservation project to lift wall to save Banksy rat painting from destruction, London, UK - 2019
    Aerial construction specialists and demolition experts use a huge crane to carefully lift intact, a twenty five ton, two-story wall, to preserve a famous Banksy rat image which has been covered up for years. Teams from specialist companies have spent over six weeks cutting around the artwork and fitting custom made eight ton steel supports to enable them to save the historic piece of art. Work has started on the construction of a new twenty seven floor hotel on the site of the old Foundry building in Shoreditch, east London, and a condition of the planning permission was to preserve the historical Banksy graffiti. A second section of the painting, an image of a TV being thrown through a broken window has already been cut out and moved separately. After the hotel construction is complete the two parts of the Banksy painting will be displayed on the hotel. Our pictures show the stages of work to protect the image, culminating in the lifting of the three story wall by crane.

    You Floated My Battleship! The Superships That Carry Superloads
    When the weighty problem of transporting superloads around the world arises, a bulky breed of superships are ready to take up the challenge.

    But rather than standard cargo containers, these vessels are capable of floating unimaginable loads including full oil rigs, multiple nuclear-powered submarines and, in one epic voyage, 18 barges from China to the Netherlands.

    Currently, the Australian Navy are employing the services of Netherlands-based shipping company Dockwise's MV Blue Marlin, the largest cargo transport ship in the world.

    The ship is transporting the first of two aircraft carrier hulls from Spain to Melbourne.

    The Australian Landing Helicopter Dock (ALHD) Canberra is the first to commence the 12,000 nautical mile voyage around the Cape of Good Hope, estimated to be completed in 45 days after setting off on 20 August from Punta Langosteira, a new large port just south of La Coruna, northern Spain.

    Spanish company Navantia has completed construction of the ships from the keel to the flight deck, and now the hulls are being transported for completion by BAE Systems Australia. The second hull, the ALHD Adelaide, will be transported in early 2014.

    Blue Marlin is more than up to the task, being 712ft in length, larger than two football pitches, 138ft deep and able to carry 75,000 tonnes. That said, the ALHD Canberra is so large it overhangs the Blue Marlin deck by 180ft.

    Blue Marlin's load capability also meant it was the ship of choice for the U.S. Navy when they had to transport the stricken destroyer USS Cole back to the United States after the warship was damaged by an Al-Qaeda suicide bomber attack while anchored in the port of Aden, Yemen.

    The Blue Marlin is manned by a 24 crew and is powered by 17,000 horsep...
