Bored tunnel formwork La línea – Carmelitas
Client: Hidalgo e Hidalgo
Country: Colombia
Emplacement: Calarcá - Cajamarca
année : 2018-19
La description:
Within the road infrastructure project known as "Cruce de la Cordillera Central" various annexed works are being developed with the purpose of facilitating traffic on National Route 40, one of the most important cross roads in Colombia, which links Bogotá with the coffee axis, the city of Cali and the port of Buenaventura, next to the Pacific Ocean. In the aforementioned journey, it is estimated that the work will reduce the travel time of heavy-duty vehicles by 90 minutes and that of light vehicles by 30 minutes.
It should be noted that the entire 30-kilometer central mountain range crossing project includes the construction of 25 tunnels, 31 bridges, 18 kilometers of second lane, and 3 road interchanges.
BESOINS IDENTIFIÉS:
For this, a equipment adaptable to three different sections is delivered for the execution of several short tunnels in the same geographical area but distanced from each other by sections still unpaved. The main characteristic of the equipment, in addition to the possibility of changing the section, is the use of caterpillars to move them due to the difficult orography between tunnel sections.
Quel était le défi?:
Get a formwork that would allow you to move quickly through unpaved terrain, with slopes of 11% and that would adapt to the variable sections of the project.
