Initial situation

Along the district road PA 51 between Obernzell and Kohlbachmühle (Bavaria), the existing rockfall protection fence dating from the 1970s had to be replaced and extended. The slope is very steep - partially more than 45 degrees. It is set in a nature reserve that is popular with cyclists. Working in this ecologically sensitive area required a particular precautionary approach.
