The 15km long project has since been successfully completed after 20 months of construction. Not only has the full closure \u2013 which was necessary for economic and environmental protection reasons \u2013 been lifted, but also one of the important access routes to the Gotthard Tunnel has been completed.<\/p>\n<p>The fact that this could be done without any problems and delivered on schedule despite coronavirus is due to the work of Emch+Berger. The engineering firm was commissioned by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sbb.ch\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Swiss Federal Railways<\/a> (SBB) to undertake the planning, overall project management and construction management. The planning was based on a BIM model in Allplan Engineering.<\/p>\n<h3>Double-track expansion and renovation of engineering structures<\/h3>\n<p>The project consists of four sub-projects, the centrepiece of which was a 1.7km long double-track extension of the northern track at Walchwil Station. The slopes \u2013 which included inclines of up to 35 degrees \u2013 proved to be a particular challenge in terms of logistics, geology and the planning of the supporting structures.<\/p>\n<p>The other sub-projects comprised the maintenance of engineering structures, roadways, tunnels and protective structures against natural hazards.<\/p>\n<p>On the approximately 12km open stretch between Zug and Arth Goldau, around 90 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/bim-news\/allplans-structural-engineering\/84085\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">engineering structures<\/a> were renovated or replaced by new ones and the track \u2013 including the railway system \u2013 was completely renewed. Of the eight tunnels, one had to be practically rebuilt due to being widened to two lanes.<\/p>\n<p>The profiles of the other single-lane tunnels were also expanded to allow the double-decker trains through, for which the floors in the 120-year-old natural stone structures had to be lowered and the vaults re-supported. This shows the complexity of the construction project and the demands it placed on the engineering offices designing it and the companies carrying out the construction. On average, six engineers and five designers from the engineering team were involved in the large-scale project.<\/p>\n<p>In autumn 2018, planning had to be ramped up again at short notice when the construction started, after having been delayed by several years.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_97856\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-97856\" style=\"width: 575px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-97856\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Projektteam-EmchBerger-WSB-AG-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"575\" height=\"381\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Projektteam-EmchBerger-WSB-AG-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Projektteam-EmchBerger-WSB-AG-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Projektteam-EmchBerger-WSB-AG-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Projektteam-EmchBerger-WSB-AG-696x462.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Projektteam-EmchBerger-WSB-AG-1068x709.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Projektteam-EmchBerger-WSB-AG-632x420.jpg 632w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Projektteam-EmchBerger-WSB-AG-610x405.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Projektteam-EmchBerger-WSB-AG.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 575px) 100vw, 575px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-97856\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Designer Robin Tschuppert and civil engineer Manuel Sigrist, Emch+Berger WSB AG, Cham\/Switzerland<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s when we had to join forces and concentrate on what was absolutely necessary.

The CNC-controlled machine then cut the defined elements to millimetre accuracy.<\/p>\n<p>The staking points of each formwork element could also be taken from the model and efficiently and precisely brought into the correct position on the construction site. For the other structures, the data from the model was mainly used for the creation of excavation pits, the removal of rock surfaces, the filling of embankments and generally for all setting out.<\/p>\n<p>For Manuel Sigrist and Robin Tschuppert, the final conclusion is clear: \u201cWe were able to gain valuable experience in 3D modelling in this major project and know exactly what we will do differently in a next project.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For more information, visit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allplan.com\/buildability\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener
