ABSTRACT

Marti has been working on the Italian side of the Brenner Base Tunnel project since the beginning, starting not only with the bridge which overtakes the Highway, the Isarco river, a National Road, and the Railway line, but also with the supply of the long belt for the Aica-Mules pilot bore. These structures have been designed for those preliminary tunnels as well as for an extensive use in the ongoing project, which is related to the excavation of the main Brenner lines on the Italian side. The operative job sites which the system involves are Mules 1, Genauen 2, Unterplattern and Hinterrigger. These are linked to the already existing plants The system is able to handle contemporarily excavated material produced by n. 3 TBMs and various D&B tunnels (ca. 2.100 t/h capacity) and also brings crushed material to the batching plant installed in the logistic knot cavern, in an Industry 4.0 full integrated optic.
