Infrastructure Progess is built on ideas.

The worldwide, substantial change and the demand for versatile and intelligent infrastructure ashore, in waters and in the air today requires more new ways for the construction of infrastructure projects than ever. The securing of water supply and energy as well as environmentally-friendly waste management play an essential role in the development of a new location or an entire region. The complexity of these often huge projects requires holistic actions of the different sectors in order to integrate the depth of added value within the Max Bögl Group in the sense of the construction...

Traffic route construction 7

Traffic route construction – more mobility for tomorrow Air, road, water and rail: Mobility and traffic constitute the characteristics of a modern society. The extension and the further development of traffic infrastructure stand for the quality of life and economic prosperity and are thus among the most important tasks of our day and age. Increasing (individual) traffic and simultaneously higher environmental burdens require far-sighted solutions and concepts today. Roads will also remain the number one traffic carriers in­ the future. They have to fulfil the requirements of constantly...

Bridge construction

Bridge construction – on a direct way For thousands of years bridges have helped people to overcome natural borders. In the beginning, trees were used and placed above creeks, or stones were placed in the water in order to pass small rivers. Later, simple suspended constructions made of natural materials followed as well as large bridges made of stones in order to overcome large rivers and deep valleys. Today, bridge constructions are masterpieces of the latest state-of-the-art construction technology, as they have become higher, longer, heavier and more complex in the course of time. They...

Special foundation engineering 15

Safely underground – special foundation engineering today Increasingly innovative processes and equipment technologies lead to a rapid upswing in the field of special foundation engineering. The inventiveness of engineers, the latest research results and further advancing and new developments in the field of mechanical engineering have accelerated this process. Although the accomplishments­ of special foundation engineer­­­ ing are no longer visible after the completion of the construction works for most construction projects, these measures are indispensable for the later progress of the...

Constantly deeper – challenge for tunnel construction Tunnel construction has experienced a real boom for several years and decades. Tunnel constructors worldwide push tunnels and galleries through earth, mountains and below waterways in order to pave the way for traffic routes and supply lines – under conditions that are unthinkable for most people. still regarded as masterpieces of technology. As they virtually symbolise the violently taken, direct way, the construction of tunnels requires very high technical knowledge and precision. Spectacular projects, trend-setting innovations and...

Microtunneling – remotely-controlled through the underground The share of mined, i.e. un­ erd ground installations of pipelines, constantly increases in the field of canal pipeline constructions. Partly dilapidated canalisation and pipeline systems in the cities and a constantly denser building development in urban housing estates require increasingly modern construction methods. Particularly the tunnel driving, which currently seems to be the most environmentallyfriendly construction method, has developed to the most interesting alternative of conventional open pipe trenches in terms of...

Supply and disposal – f or a better environment In times of globalisation and smaller budgets of communities and towns, the traditional tasks of the self-administra­ tions such as supply and disposal management are put to test. The development and optimisation of existing systems as well as the application of state-of-the-art technologies ought to and thus have to make a contribution to affording these indispensable services also in the future. The expansion or redevelopment of existing canal and pipe systems to the higher quality requirements can certainly not be implemented over night....

Civil engineering – standards by functions Cisterns and reservoirs, wells and aqueducts: Already in ancient times, engineering constructions constituted an important basis for culture. Several of the ancient systems still work today, after thousands of years. In their position as successors of ancient master-builders, today’s civil engineers pursue a proud tradition that obliges them. Therefore, cosmopolitan metropolises and major cities take great pains to recruit the best engineers and planners – with the objective of creating more and more spectacular edifices and more promising pilot...

Superstructure technology – innovative in all speed ranges The traffic development of unbroken growth to this day increasingly reaches its limits in terms of environmental sustainability, the capacity of transport networks, the financial viability and the acceptance among the population. Therefore, it is important for the future not only to improve the technologies for road ways, vehicles and operating procedures. The worldwide expansion of the road way is also essential for the economic development of every country. The Max Bögl Group has committed itself to the trendsetting development...
