CHALLENGE
– The design of the high-load shoring structure in accordance with the stability project.
SOLUTION
The construction of the Ribeira Brava tunnel on the island of Madeira was carried out using Towrok shoring towers.
Towrok towers are composed of elements that, after being assembled, form a high-safety rigid structure with a load capacity of at least 100 kN per element or 200 kN per tower.
They are the right choice for high-complexity work, as is always the case with infrastructure such as roads and railways and their respective tunnels.
The Metalusa Engineering Department accompanied the work, providing all the necessary support for the correct use of their equipment.
This was another job successfully completed by a partner using Metalusa equipment.
