Project description

The "Rock and boulder fall" hazard map for the Grossstei - Rormatta area was revised. During the revision, it was determined that a large part of the year-round populated area lies in the red hazard zone. The municipality of Embd has drawn up a construction project to ensure the protection of local residents. A new protective dam will be built in the area of the existing turning area to the east (55.00m). The dam will be constructed using an earth-reinforced supporting structure. Before the embankment is built, some preliminary work must be carried out

Requirements

  • Tight space conditions
  • 3D model on excavator
