Geobrugg produces complete protection systems against rockfall, unstable rock and loose rock slopes, landslides, debris flow and avalanches. At the same time we support the ordering party, planner and building contractor with our know-how from related spheres of application – also with respect to combined protection measures. With production facilities on three continents as well as branch offices and representatives around the globe, Geobrugg is always close to its customers. So ”close customer relations” are not limited to sales but covers the entire process chain.
Innovation as tradition
Since our first avalanche prevention structure of wire ropes created in 1951 we have continued to develop innovative
mechanical protection systems. Central are nets and meshes of high-tensile steel wire. From these we configure systems capable of coping with the most varied threat scenarios.
The basis: high-tensile steel wire
The starting point for Geobrugg solutions is high-tensile steel wire. It is characterized by high cutting resistance, high
energy absorption capability and long life with low maintenance. This makes world records possible; for instance the
certification test in which a Geobrugg ring net stopped a 20 tonne concrete cube with an impact velocity of 103 km/h.
Only field tests really ensure true protection
The performance of Geobrugg protection systems are not only calculated. We test our systems according to the world’s most rigorous directives in 1:1 field tests with impact and tearing tests. At the same time the performance parameters of all system components are regularly monitored by independent testing institutions.
Project and risk-related
There are no standard solutions for complex threat situations. That is why we analyze every hazard situation prior to developing individual and often totally new protection systems, based on highly specialized know-how from 50 years of steel wire processing.
Simulation software as a basis for dimensioning
Our FARO software is verified and calibrated through 1:1 tests. With this we can represent which parts of a structure
are stressed with which forces in an event. The results of this simulation are incorporated in the dimensioning of the
protection measures – for instance in the shape of special anchorages or reduced post intervals.
We support ordering parties, planners and construction firms with two performance pack-ages.
- In all cases as consultant and (if required), with analysis, staking out, anchor testing, installation and acceptance.
- In the case of special threats or requirements, by engineering special solutions, adapted constructions and project-specific trials or tests.
Geobrugg Protection Systems is a company of the BRUGG Group with global headquarters in Brugg, Switzerland.
