A new tunnel formwork system from Pilosio reduces the time needed for assembly. Made from standard components, this can be used for a wide range of geometries.
Bomag launches its new BM/65 series of cold planers in early September 2021. With a CECE operating weight of only 27 tonnes, the BM 2000/65 is the lightest planer currently available in the 2-metre class. Its low weight achieved by the special lightweight design and the shorter conveyor belt now make the planers even more flexible to use. When it comes to efficiency, ease of operation and work safety, the new generation of planers features numerous innovative details
Infrastructure investment means that the road tunnel construction sector is healthy due to demand for new links – Mike Woof reports
With many emergent nations investing heavily in infrastructure, the tunnelling sector is seeing extensive business at present. Tunnels provide key links in mountainous areas or in congested cities where building roads on the surface may not be practical. In Asia and Latin America, many key road connections are now being built underground to pass challenging terrain or provide
Aquajet Systems says that its new Aqua Spine is a modular system that uses high-pressure water jets to remove concrete from surfaces that may be inaccessible for Aqua Cutter robots. The Aqua Spine allows hydrodemolition techniques to be used in areas that would otherwise be difficult to access, providing a safe and efficient technology for users.
Hydrodemolition uses high-pressure water jets to precisely remove sound, deteriorated or damaged concrete. The sustainable method leaves rebar undamaged while pro
