More than ever, it is the multi-disciplinarity, the complementarity and independence of Fondasol group that have been of such value in this mission.
The combination of geotechnical engineering expert assessments and structural studies by Fondasol's Major Design Projects department and Prodétis provides an overall mastery of the soil-structure interactions, for the structures of the above-ground and the underground structures alike.
Technically solid and experienced, the team that is working on this mission is familiar with the geotechnical issues liked to the design and construction of linear transport infrastructure and the related structures.
The team will be able to rely not only on a detailed knowledge of the project's local geological and geotechnical context, but also on the depth of the Group's expertise in the different fields concerned.
In-house specialists may also be brought in for a variety of cross-cutting subjects:
This new phase in the Line 17 North construction project will extend from Le Bourget RER station (excluded) as far as Le Mesnil-Amelot.
In concrete terms, this means 20.5 km of new track to be laid, including 15 km underground and 5.5 km above-ground, plus 5 new stations on this section.
