Tunnels
Tunnel construction is an exceptionally challenging field within the construction industry, requiring engineers to adhere to rigorous standards in terms of strength, resistance to water, and longevity. Given the constant interplay between human-made structures, natural rock formations, and water, it becomes essential to employ injection techniques as an integral part of the construction process. EGCORE provides a comprehensive range of products specifically designed to address the unique requirements encountered in tunnel construction. To learn more about this topic, please request our dedicated brochure on tunneling.
Injections can be used in the following:
- To support, safeguard and waterproof start and end shafts, as well as the shield tail when carrying out maintenance measures to prevent unwanted water ingress.
- Advanced stabilizing and waterproofing injection in order to secure the freshly excavated tunnel tube.
- Shield tail sealing for maintenance work as tunnel boring continues
- Protection of the concrete against the penetration of contaminants via cracks and cavities.
- Waterproofing and subsequent sealing of tubbing joints.
