Urban and Specialized Works
ACRO BTP (SUISSE) SA
SPECIALIZES IN DIFFICULT ACCESS WORKS
AND HIGH-ALTITUDE WORKS.
ACTIVITIES
ROPE ACCESS WORK
In urban environments, we are called upon for rope work when traditionally employed methods are too cumbersome or simply less suited than alternative roped solutions. Depending on the nature of the work, roping isn't always the sole solution: we adjust the methodology based on the requirements and the scope of the intervention. Ropes are complemented by lifting equipment, scaffolding, or other appropriate techniques.
SPECIALIZED WORKS
Nailed walls, sprayed concrete, micropiles, buttresses, and concrete pillars... In public works, we operate in typically challenging and hard-to-reach locations, undertaking projects that require specialized expertise in special works and soil knowledge. Passionate about all challenging and complex access projects, we continuously seek to innovate and offer tailor-made solutions to our clients.
OPTIMIZED WEIGHT-TO-SURFACE RATIO
The ACROSOLS® is a galvanized steel support device, designed to operate in all geotechnical contexts. It features a structure with a significantly optimized weight-to-surface ratio.
SIGNIFICANT LOAD BEARING CAPACITY
The ACROSOLS® boasts a substantial load-bearing capacity, thanks to its diamond tip and three-dimensional structure that stiffens its frame. Its mechanical resistances enable the construction of vertical structures of 6m or more, with intermediate platforms.
SIMPLICITY, EFFICIENCY
The implementation time is minimized as the installation of ACROSOLS® is much faster than a sprayed concrete wall. The installation rate for ACROSOLS® panels can reach up to 10 units per day.
PERMEABILITY
ACROSOLS® is permeable; it does not retain hydrostatic pressure, avoiding the need for over-sizing structures and eliminating the necessity for specific drainage pipes.
AN ECONOMICAL STRUCTURE
Structures built with ACROSOLS® are financially advantageous. Due to the lightweight material and fast implementation, these products are highly competitive. Moreover, the finished surface ratio per day is 2.5 times higher than that of a nailed wall.
REDUCTION IN CO2 EMISSIONS
ACROSOLS® is even more efficient as its CO2 emissions on a typical construction site are significantly reduced compared to a nailed wall. Indeed, the material supply by trucks is minimized, and therefore, disturbances to local residents due to deliveries are limited.
