Initial situation

At the RhB station in Disentis, wood is loaded onto rail cars. A busy road runs parallel to the track. The task was to ensure that neither construction logs nor small parts fall onto the road and thus obstruct traffic or cause an accident.

Description

Based on experience from similar projects, Geobrugg developed a solution to protect the area behind the loading bay. During the execution, the client placed the supports at the defined points. Next, our specialists installed the netting including the support and tensioning ropes.

The distance between the supports is five meters, and the total length is 60 meters.
