Clearing the way - Routing with Wirtgen Surface Miners to clear the way in rocky terrain
Wirtgen surface miners can do far more than just mine minerals. During the construction of the Chisholm Trail Parkway, they reliably chewed their way through hard rock.
Over the course of two summers, an artificial reservoir was constructed in the Ötztal Alps. The 3520 HT compactor made a decisive contribution here to the successful construction of a lake basin.
The taxiways, runways, apron, and the south runway at the airport cover a total of 1.5 million square meters. Paving was carried out by Wirtgen slipform pavers.
In-place cold recycling of bituminous materials was carried out during a project in Illinois. For this purpose, the contractor selected the 2200 CR recycler with a working width of 3.80 m.
Hamm AG’s facility expansion project was a massive undertaking. The company needed to prepare an area measuring 150,000 m² and move 350,000 m³ of earth.
Autostrada A1 – Europe's largest construction project
To build the A1 freeway in Poland as efficiently as possible, machines from the Wirtgen Group were almost the only equipment used during paving and compaction, including several HAMM compactors and tandem rollers.
Three Wirtgen surface miners are currently being operated by Mineração Paragominas in the Pará region, replacing the previously used, conventional mining method.
Recycling in the megacity environmental protection in São Paulo
Recycling in the megacity environmental protection in São Paulo: The Avenida Sapopemba is the busiest road in São Paulo and one of the country’s main traffic routes. It has now been rehabilitated, making economical use of resources. In operation: the KMA 220.
The blessing of the Caribeean – Dominican Republic
20 Wirtgen Group machines are constructing the new roadways for the extension of the 70 km long section of the “Autopista Del Coral” in the Dominican Republic.
Tight corners, high-speed straights, and a section that twists through a luxury hotel. Wirtgen Group machines were in pole position at the Yas Marina Circuit.
The 2 km long runway at Tromsø Airport (Norway) was rehabilitated at night because the airport had to remain in operation during the short Arctic summer.
The Xibao Expressway is one of the most important highways in China. Every day it has to endure 30% heavy-duty vehicle traffic. It was rehabilitated via in-plant cold recycling.
The A1 highway in Poland received a particularly robust road bed. The first step was creating a stabilized sub-base 50 cm thick that that was compacted with padfoot drums.
1.6 million tons of asphalt for Europe´s largest construction project
Because heavy goods traffic is set to grow to enormous proportions, the A1 highway needed a road surface designed to withstand heavy loads. A 20 cm thick gravel layer serves as frost protection.
The world’s best drivers battled for the championship title at the Race of Champions in Wembley. Wirtgen Group machines paved the racetrack with asphalt surfacing.
When the courtyard in front of the Church of the Assumption was redesigned, oscillation from Hamm proved to be the only compaction technology that could be used.
The road on Mount Lee exhibited craze cracks, also known as “alligator cracks.” The city of Los Angeles opted to use cold recycling for the rehabilitation.
Six slipform pavers rebuild Europe’s largest construction site
The Inn Canal was Europe’s largest construction site in the 1920s. During rehabilitation of the canal, state-of-the-art slipforming technology was used.
