WATER CROSSINGS
Under or over water
Civil engineering is always particularly challenging when there are obstacles.
A body of water could be such an obstacle. If a pipeline has to be routed under, through, or over a body of water, special expertise is required. Water crossings are one of UHRIG’s specialties.

Consideration for the environment
Bodies of water are natural areas that need to be protected, as covered by legislation on water protection.
If pipelines need to cross a body of water, this poses a challenge for both pipeline construction and civil engineering. UHRIG has developed extensive expertise in this area and attaches particular value 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 projects.
For water crossings, we offer dynamic pipe jacking, a method in which pipes are driven horizontally through the ground.
In addition, UHRIG is a specialist company for the construction of cofferdams, major water retention structures, water transfers, and all forms of necessary groundwater lowering in watercourses.
UHRIG, the civil engineering experts
Our experience is accompanied by an openness to new ideas. This means that no obstacle can deter us – not even water.
On the contrary: we rise to the challenge and show what ecological civil engineering looks like.
UHRIG specialties
Our goal is to consistently set new economic and ecological standards in our areas of expertise.
We provide you with detailed information, explain our reasoning, and answer your questions. UHRIG is your port of call for all things civil engineering.
