About Us
Our Founder
Paul Markelz is a Civil/Structural Engineering Graduate of Marquette University. Paul is a career-long bridge builder starting with post-tension concrete highway bridges and started his own company to design-build these types of bridges for the railroad industry. He observed how the railroads build bridges and started thinking of new methods and support equipment to build faster and safer. He saw the opportunity to build fewer, longer spans to reduce project time and impact on railroad operations. He designed Rcrane as a crew safe, variable width, dual gantry, thru-crane, portable staging and delivery system. His motto is “Build Better, Safer, Sooner, Longer, Stronger.”
