SiSto Carpeting Tunnel (CH)

Projects

Description

The construction of the 2036 m long road safety tunnel Crapteig started 2018 and finished 2022. The use of synthetic fibre reinforced sprayed concrete for the initial protection and for the sprayed permanent inner lining allowed a progress of 24 m/week compared to the originally steel reinforced (mesh) solution with 16 m/week. An increase of 50%. We would like to thank all project participants for the excellent teamwork.

Advantages of Concrix ES Solution:

  • Faster constriction progress
  • Cost reduction (material and labour)
  • More security – no mesh installation for initial protection layer
  • No corrosion – more durability
  • Less CO₂ – environmentally friendlier (EPD certified)
