The project involved the implementation of wide-span deep excavation shoring, which was a key component in the construction of a small hydroelectric power plant. The task consisted of designing and developing a custom shoring system tailored specifically to the individual requirements provided by the Client.

The KOPRAS wide-span shoring system allowed for significantly faster installation compared to traditional methods. By providing a completely strut-free (clear-span) excavation without any internal bracing or supports, it ensured an unobstructed workspace for seamless operations inside the shoring.

Wide-Span Deep Excavation Dimensions:

  • Length: 22,20 m
  • Width: 18,00 m
  • Working depth: 3,90 m
