Hydraulic Jacking Systems for the Saint Jacques viaduct in Clermont-Ferrand

PLACE: France


Area: Infrastructure


Hydraulic Jacking Systems for the Saint Jacques viaduct in Clermont-Ferrand, Synchronous lifting system in action.
It is always a source of great satisfaction for FPT – Fluid Power Technology to see its customers create works of great engineering challenge.

Thanks to Bouygues Travaux Publics Régions France – VSL International Ltd. – Su-Re!

For this project our client jacked 10 piles of 8mm each with an impressive mass of 900 to 1200t per pile. The FPT Synchro System machine was used for the lifting operations.

Here are some highlights of this project::

  • Accuracy and technical expertise:
    Jacking structures of this size require extreme precision (0.3mm) and impeccable coordination. For the Jacking operations, the Synchronized Lifting Systems from FPT Fluid Power Technology were used.
  • Teamwork and collaboration:
    The success of this project is the result of close collaboration between all companies.
  • Innovation and resilience:
    We used cutting-edge techniques and equipment to carry out this project..

We are very proud to have been chosen as a partner for this project and to have contributed to the realization of an ambitious project and to have made a positive contribution to the community of Clermont-Ferrand. Always stimulating FPT towards new challenges and projects to satisfy the needs of synchronized jacking coming from our customers. For future projects we remain at your disposal.
