STABILIZATION IN DIFFICULT ACCESS LOCATIONS

Our aim is to protect people and property from natural arising risks from rocks surface 's instability.
For this, we use rope access techniques, allowing us to work on vertical rocks or steep talus slopes.

A VARIETY OF TECHNIQUES

NEUTRALIZING INSTABILITY BY SCALING

Manually, using scaling rods
Mechanically, using hydraulic splitters
or pneumatic drills
By hydraulic or pneumatic jacking
By air cushion

By rock excavation :

- chemically, using expanding cement
- using explosives

REMOVING INSTABILITY BY TARGETED MEASURES

Installing net drapes
Installing passive anchors
Installing pre-stressed anchors
Installing pins and struts

PROTECTING THE SITE BY OVERALL MEASURES

Installing wire mesh
Spraying concrete
Installing stone and rock screens

SIMECO builds and implements Class 1 to 9 rock screens complying with the NF P 95-308 standard.

THE PERFORMANCE OF OUR EQUIPMENT

Drilling is one of our basic techniques. Drilling equipment must be suited to working in locations that are difficult for access and handling, while optimizing the return on the project. Injection and spraying of concrete are the two other components of our work that require the availability of specialist equipment.

OUR CLIENTS

The major public and private principals (local authorities .)
Motorway builders
General urban public works contractors
