2019 – 2025: 2. S-Bahn Core Route, Munich

 

 

To relieve passenger traffic of the existing main line, a second approximately 11 kilometres long main line is being built between Laim station in the west and Leuchtenbergring station in the east. The centrepiece is a seven kilometre long tunnel connecting the newly to-be-built underground stations Hauptbahnhof and Ostbahnhof, with the underground station Marienhof located in between.

2006 - 2011:

SECTION U3 NORTH3, Moosach, Germany

 

Crossing station of German Rail with subway line U3 including a subterranean two story car park and storage sidings

 

 

 

Scope of Construction:

 

 

Upfront a sewer was deviated out of the area of the underground car park by means of 86m of pipe jacking (DIN 1200) under the Station of German Rail. 

 

The substructure with a length of 360m length consists of a two story underground car park and a storage siding for the subway underneath. The structures were built whilst at any given time three out of the five tracks of German Rail were in service. Thus German Rail tracks had to be deviated twice and island sites had to be managed.

The walls of the structure were built of single-leaf diaphragm walls (1,20m) and both vertical and inclined (O.D. 1,50m) intersecting bored piles. After excavation at the piles a facing concrete was applied. The restraint length of the walls in the ground necessitated diaphragm walls and bored piles with a length of up to 30m. Due to tight development around the site the top slabs could partly be concreted only in portions, because the road traffic had to be deviated several times. After dewatering of the trough structure, excavation was conducted in two stages. First it was excavated down to the second slab of the car park. After this slab was concreted, excavation down to the base plate was done. During that excavation in part horizontal temporary strutting was installed between the tunnel walls to support the structure for lateral earth pressure.

The tunnel structure stands rectangular to the ground water flow. In order to balance the water levels up and downstream five pairs of shafts were built from bored piles outside the structure and connected with pipes running through the slabs of the car park.

 

Services:

 

- Engineer, contract administration and quantity surveillance for structural and

  architectural works until subway line U3 went into service and all contract

  close-outs were performed, respectively.
