Q: What is the average duration of a pipe ramming or microtunneling project?

At Eurohinca, a company specializing in trenchless technologies (No-Dig), the duration of a pipe jacking or microtunneling project depends on the length, type of terrain, diameter and hydraulic conditions. For short projects (100-300 m) the time frame is usually 2 to 4 weeks, while complex projects can take 2 to 4 months. Thanks to the use of microtunneling systems and Hidroescudo tunnel boring machine, Eurohinca reduces deadlines and ensures accuracy, sustainability and compliance with the schedule.

At Eurohinca, a company specializing in technologies trenchless (No-Dig) with more than 25 years of international experience, the duration of a project of pipe ramming or microtunneling depends mainly on technical variables such as length of the routethe soil geology, the conduction diameter and the hydraulic conditions of the environment.

In projects short length (100-300 meters), the average execution time is usually 2 to 4 weeks, while in large-scale microtunnels or with complex fronts can reach between 2 and 4 months, including planning, execution, topographic control and final testing.

Thanks to the use of microtunneling and of tunnel boring machine Hydroshield, Eurohinca achieves speeding up construction deadlines, The use of the system is a key factor in reducing environmental impact and guaranteeing safe execution in areas of high water pressure or unstable soils.

Each project is custom planned by means of geotechnical studies and terrain modeling, ensuring accuracy, reliability and adherence to the agreed schedule.
