UHRIG Civil Engineering: Water crossings

Under or over water

In civil engineering, obstacles are always a particular challenge. One such obstacle can be a body of water. If a sewer has to be routed under, through or over a body of water, expertise is required. Water crossings are one of UHRIG’s special areas of expertise.

Environmentally friendly water crossing

Water bodies are natural areas that need to be protected. This is ensured by numerous water protection regulations. UHRIG has developed into a real specialist in the field of water crossings and attaches particular importance to environmental protection.

This means that we strive to keep the impact on flora and fauna to a minimum.

Our know-how

We use minimally invasive methods or develop innovative approaches for individual cases. First of all, dynamic tunnelling, in which pipes are driven horizontally through the ground underground, is an option for water crossings.

In addition, UHRIG is also a specialist company for the construction of cofferdams, large water management systems, water transfers and all forms of necessary groundwater lowering in flowing waters.

Our experience

For over 60 years, we have specialized in civil engineering in urban areas and under difficult conditions. During this time, we have not only implemented hundreds of construction projects, but have also developed technologies and processes that set us apart from the competition.
