It involves the showroom and loading building with total tonnage of 160 tons.

 

Spectacular lifting of the cross beam in axis 11

During the night from Tuesday to Wednesday, another section of the Dorlar viaduct of A45 motorway was erected.

Using a 650t crawler crane, the supporting cross beam was successfully lifted into axis 11.
The installation team only had a time window of four hours for the total operation, as the adjacent rail traffic was blocked during this time period.

In the two days that followed, the four longitudinal girders extending across the Lahn River were also lifted.

Beginning of the construction of the 2nd construction phase

The 2nd construction phase of the Heidingsfeld motorway viaduct was launched at the beginning of this week.

Construction began with the build-up of the foundations in the form station, on which the first steel components are to be laid in beginning of November.

Movement of launchpad successfully completed

By the end of August, the pad was welded on a pre-assembly surface. After these tasks were completed, the pad was successfully moved to its final position on September 11, 2018 and subsequently de-stacked onto the concrete slab. The final construction phase is currently underway.

The installation of the supply mast will follow in mid-October.

The first section of the new bridge structure over the A1 motorway was successfully erected.

On the first weekend in September, 8 steel girders of the new bridge structure were lifted over the A1 motorway near Cologne in two night operations.
