ROCKFALL STUDY OF NATURAL AND ARTIFICIAL SLOPES AND ROAD IMPROVEMENT
OF THE NEW EPIDAVROS – KALLONI JUNCTION (NEW ROAD PLANNING)
GEOTECHNICAL WORKS BUDGET : 183.000 €
CLIENT: PREFECTURE OF PIRAEUS
STARTING – COMPLETION DATE: 3/2004 – 6/2004
The
project includes detailed geological studies and geotechnical surveys of natural
and artificial slopes. The above were carried out along the 9,8 new road
planning of Epidavros – Kalloni Junction, as well as along the existing section,
for the assessment of the optimum protection and support measures of the
extended and steep rocky slopes. In order to achieve the scope listed above,
studies of pre-stressed anchors, rock barriers and rock trenches were carried
out. In a section of the road of 180m length the construction of a cut and cover
tunnel was necessary due to the steep slopes.
Tender documents were prepared, in order for the Prefecture of Piraeus to
proceed with the construction works. The project with a total budget of
protection measures reaching 10,3000,000 € was finally constructed by the J/V
ENTECHNOS S.A. – ANASTILOTIKI S.A
