Freight Corridor
The Project
To provide specialised mass solutions for bridge and drainage infrastructure specific to the railway segment.
The Challenge
This project had various challenges: high cargo loading capacity, durability in line with vibrational rail effects, short project timelines across packages, and, finally, IRS compliance.
Maharashtra
The Solution
The Dedicated Freight Corridors are a large-scale government project built to drive freight transportation technology into the future, something we know very well.
This mega project required more than 250 precast box culvert bridges and 300 km of precast drains over ten packages, making FUJI Silvertech a pioneer in size and scale in the railway sector. As load bearing and IRS compliance were primary requisites, the box culvert bridges were designed for 32.5 T railway axle loading and varied from 1.2m x 1m to 3m x 3m in size.
The project requirements demanded innovation, so we designed and manufactured huge T-shape segmental retaining walls of up to 10m in height. These structures are now the most prominent designed precast solutions for retaining walls in India.
BENEFITS
These solutions provided by FUJI Silvertech have numerous benefits:
- High-speed construction of bridges, retaining walls, and drainage systems
- Drainage that enables a high flow of water
- IRS compliant construction
- Allowing heavy cargo movement with low maintenance requirements
