Initial situation

During the construction of a new residential complex (Michelsberg), the risk assessment revealed a risk of falling rocks and that the area needed to be secured accordingly. Some of the protective fences already erected were no longer state-of-the-art or had insufficient energy absorption capacity and had to be replaced.

Description

6 meter high rockfall protection fences, RXE series ring nets, with an energy absorption capacity of 2000 kJ secure the area of the residential complex.
