  • Construction Phase 2: Canal as double-cell cross-section (W/H = 2.20/4.00 and 8.00/4.00 m) with a length of 318 m
  • Construction Phase 3a: pipe tunnelling (internal diameter 3600 mm) with a length of 562 m
  • Construction Phase 3b: pipe tunnelling (internal diameter 2200 mm) with a length of 216 m
  • Construction Phase 4: pipe tunnelling (internal diameter 2600 mm) with a length of 1,824 m
  • Starting shaft shield tunnelling (L/W/H = 30.00/12.00/18.50 m)
  • Underground pumping station for emptying the culvert
Special features
  • Canal egg profile in gallery construction method with conveyor shaft distance of 50 to 70 m
  • Driving of the low-lying culvert with shield tunnelling and a mean earth cover of 7.50 m
  • Use of a hydroshield with liquid-supported road header (Øa = 4.80 m)
  • Tunnelling of the nominal widths 2200 to 3600 mm with hydraulic pipe tunnelling
  • Cover solution in the area of the required entry or control shafts and the gate and well structures
Utilization
  • Overflow collector as reservoir canal
Construction
  • Single-shell expansion with watertight reinforced concrete tubbings in the area of the shield line
  • Egg profile out of concrete pre-fabricated parts or with mini full-round formwork carriage
  • All structures out of concrete impervious to water
Geology
  • Rough gravel, sand, gravel, rubble, in part large boulders
