Two of the piles were installed to a depth of 7.85 metres, while the other two reached a depth of 9.85 metres. The bored piles form the foundations for two torsion beams on which noise barriers will later be installed.
The project demonstrates exactly what the Foundation Construction Train was designed for: carrying out foundation work directly from the railway track, including at locations that are difficult to access using conventional methods. The system is particularly effective where space is limited, site conditions are challenging and track possession windows are short.
Thanks to the close cooperation and commitment of the team, the demanding foundation work was completed successfully. Many thanks to all colleagues at HERING Grundbau GmbH who contributed to the project.
