Home Products Uses Companies Contacts EN OVERHANGING TUNNELS Tensiter open overhanging tunnels offer a great panoramic effect thanks to the total absence of pillars towards the valley. The overhanging width can extend up to 11 metres, measured from the facade of the internal vertical wall to the extremity of the structure. They are formed by a series of specific precast reinforced concrete articulated elements, which, at the same time, cover the tunnel and form a side wall on the mountain side. Elements are ready to be connected to appropriate anchoring tie-rods which guarantee their stability. The main uses are: Rock and avalanche protection Road widening in very steep slopes Execution of roads with overlying roadways The particular conception of our articulaterd precast elements allows transportation and assembly even in areas with limited space, especially in the case of mountain roads. The construction process can be used also for curved tracks, using specific precast elements with trapezoidal shape. The overhanging structure for the use of rockfall protection is designed to bear both the exceptional load of major soil accumulation due to landslide, as well as the collision due to boulder fall, even from great heights. The utilization for road bearing is also possible ROCKFALL PROTECTION OVERHANGING STRUCTURE ROAD ENLARGEMENT OVERHANGING STRUCTURE © All rights reserved TENSITER SPA VAT 00511310013 - REA 336011 TO Phone +39 011 5170124 commerciale@tensiter.it pec: tensiter@pec.it TENSITER CENTRO SRL VAT 01246170664 - REA 74984 AQ Phone +39 0862 441591 tensiter.centro@tensiter.it pec: tensiter.centro@pec.it TENSITER SARDA SRL VAT 020877110923 - CCIA 161205 CA Phone +39 070 302090 tensiter.sarda@tensiter.it pec: tensitersardasrl@cgn.legalmail.it Accept Reject all Cookie settings We use cookies and similar technologies to enable services and features on our site and to understand your interaction with our service.
