Airport development and expansion involves the construction of roadways, tramways, and surface facilities such as car parks, hotels, and maintenance facilities. This network is normally composed of access ramps<\/a>, embankments<\/a>, bridges<\/a>, tunnels<\/a>, and footpaths. And so, it is only logical that Terre Arm\u00e9e, a world leader in transportation infrastructure would offer an array of solutions for building these structures.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> Design engineers for airport infrastructure are regularly challenged with finding technical, yet economical and sustainable solutions that can overcome difficult constraints, such as:<\/p>\n Terre Arm\u00e9e\u2019s portfolio of retaining wall solutions<\/a> and precast arches<\/a> and boxes meet these challenges.<\/p>\n Reinforced Earth\u00ae<\/sup> MSE walls<\/a>, Terre Arm\u00e9e\u2019s flagship solution is the engineer\u2019s first choice for landside vertical grade separations and bridge abutments<\/a> as has been demonstrated on hundreds of airport projects worldwide. Where reinforced soil slopes<\/a> or embankments<\/a> are required, then our slope solution is recommended.<\/p>\n Airside infrastructure is also addressed in the Terre Arm\u00e9e offer with solutions for structures at, below, and above the runway grade. These structures include:<\/p>\n Terre Arm\u00e9e solutions for the tramways, bridges<\/a>, and underpasses <\/a>follow in the footsteps of those structures built on the landside, although extreme loading for aircraft and accommodation for complex utility locations often needs to be factored into our designs.<\/p>\n Runway extensions can entail building massive MSE structures in challenging terrain, even water. In the USA, Terre Arm\u00e9e (The Reinforced Earth Company USA<\/a>) has designed and furnished MSE walls supporting elevated runway extensions up to heights of 46m.<\/p>\n<\/div> From the foundation works to top-out works, our pre-engineered and prefabricated materials are bundled to provide builders with a clear path for rapid installation and quick in-service use for operations and passengers.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Our engineers apply their skills and experience that are common to their everyday road, bridge, and heavy commercial site works projects with added awareness and special attention given to aesthetics and functionality.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Using innovative techniques such as narrow back-to-back walls, TerraLink\u00ae<\/sup><\/a> shored MSE<\/a>, TechSpan\u00ae<\/sup><\/a> precast arches <\/a>\u00a0and TechBox\u00ae <\/sup>precast boxes<\/a>, Terre Arm\u00e9e solutions minimize land use and the need for onsite production, formworks and scaffolding.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Related applications<\/p><\/h2><\/span>\n
