Temporary access road and crane working platform for telecom mast assembly in Ociesęki
Building telecom masts often requires work in hard-to-reach locations where standard roads are not suitable for heavy equipment. In the Kielce County, in the Raków municipality, this project posed a unique challenge due to the local longitudinal slope of the access road exceeding 60%, which means an incline of over 30 degrees.
Due to the extreme terrain conditions, renting road plates became a crucial element of the project. To ensure safe access to the construction site, it was decided to use Alu Deck HD aluminum plates, which provided adequate grip and load-bearing capacity for the heavy equipment. As a result, the 100-ton crane entered without problems, and the mast assembly was completed on the same day.
Logistical challenges and the need for road plates
Building telecommunications infrastructure in hilly terrain requires precise planning and the use of appropriate technologies to secure the surface. The key problems to solve included:
- Extreme slope of the access road – standard surface hardening methods were insufficient at such a terrain gradient.
- Ensuring stability for a 100-ton crane – the need to create a working platform for safe mast assembly.
- Minimizing ground impact – the solution had to be temporary so that the area could be restored to its original state after the work.
- Securing the surface against erosion and subsidence – intense loads could lead to ground damage and difficulties in further terrain use.
Thanks to the use of rental road plates, the area was effectively secured, allowing smooth operation.
Alu Deck HD aluminum plates – stable surface in difficult terrain
Due to the high slope of the road and the high load-bearing requirements, Alu Deck HD aluminum plates were used to harden the route. Their properties made them the best choice for this project.
Advantages of Alu Deck HD plates in this project:
- High load-bearing capacity – enabled the safe passage of a 100-ton crane and transportation of heavy mast construction elements.
- Optimal grip on steep ground – secured the road against slippage of heavy vehicles.
- Lightweight yet durable construction – allowed quick assembly even in difficult terrain conditions.
- Weather resistance – proved effective in muddy and uneven terrain, preventing ground subsidence.
- Reusability – an ecological and economical solution that can be used in various projects.
Thanks to the use of Alu Deck HD plates, the steep incline was not an obstacle, and the crane could efficiently perform all assembly operations.

Project outcomes and key benefits of using road plates
Thanks to the applied technologies, the entire assembly operation was carried out smoothly and safely. The key project outcomes include:
- Enabling access to the construction site – without aluminum plates, reaching the construction site with heavy equipment would have been impossible.
- Safe crane operation – the stable surface allowed precise execution of lifting and mast assembly operations.
- No ground damage – the plates protected the surface from degradation, eliminating the need for additional earthworks after the investment.
- Reduced project duration – quick plate assembly enabled the work to be completed in one day, without the need for multi-day preparations.
Thanks to rented road plates, the investment was successfully completed even in extreme terrain conditions.
Why rent road plates for telecom mast construction?
Telecom mast construction often takes place in hard-to-access locations where traditional access roads are insufficient. Renting road plates is an effective solution that allows for:
- Quick and efficient preparation of an access road – even in difficult terrain.
- Providing a stable surface for heavy equipment – eliminating the risk of subsidence and slippage.
- Environmental protection and minimal ground impact – the ability to easily dismantle and reuse the plates.
- Time and cost savings – compared to constructing permanent road infrastructure.
