Exciting project

Our road construction team worked at Reutti from July to October.
Construction was carried out on the culvert at the Landgraben. In addition, the road surface was renewed over a distance of 3.4 kilometers. Before the new culvert could be installed, the land ditch had to be relocated and the groundwater level lowered. This was followed by the relocation of the stream, the backfilling of the old culvert, the construction of the ceiling as well as protective barrier and marking work.

The road was closed during this time and traffic was diverted.

The construction project

A few hundred metres from our head office at Augsburger Strasse 55 in Memmingen, we completed a large-scale civil engineering and road construction project for the municipality of Memmingerberg.

It involved moving a total of 11,600 m³ of soil as well as installing 81 road drainage inlets and 65 prefabricated shafts. Our colleagues also processed 12,950 m³ of material excavated from utility trenches, laid 3,350 sewer pipes and installed a mains water pipe for the municipality measuring 1,130 m long.

The edging was covered with 5,300 m³ of antifreeze gravel on top of which kerbstones and large granite paving were laid over a total length of 6,900 m.

The asphalt paving team then installed 14,000 m² of bearing, binding and top layers.

Throughout the entire project, the total cost for disposing of the excavated material was EUR 790,000. KUTTER was able to complete the project on schedule and in time for winter.

TIME FOR THE NIGHT SHIFT

KUTTER beats off EU-wide competition

From a military airport to one of the most important backbones of the Free State of Bavaria: Allgäu Airport in Memmingen has been an important hub for some time now. It offers flights to Egypt, Corsica, Italy, Morocco, Spain, Portugal, Great Britain and many more destinations. With a new record flight plan of over 50 destinations, it is attracting increasing numbers of holidaymakers and business travellers. In order to be able to offer additional, varied destinations to its many air passengers in future, the airport is now being expanded – not least so it can continue to fulfil the increasingly strict international security guidelines.

After a ten-month marathon of negotiations, this challenging and exciting project was awarded to KUTTER. The costing work alone for this EU-wide tender took almost two months. This was followed by a lengthy planning process with regard to employee self-monitoring as well as a time-consuming approval process for each individual worker and each individual machine – after all, the project was for an airport, classed therefore as a high-security zone. Ultimately, KUTTER was able to complete the tender stage to the utmost satisfaction of the customer and emerged successful in face of the competitors from across the EU. Last November, the groundbreaking ceremony for the renovation project took place in the presence of Bavarian Minister President Markus Söder.

The excavators roll onto site at 9.30pm

 

Since March 2019, it’s been a daily occurrence for the KUTTER team: “Time for the night shift!”. As soon as the last flights have left the runway, the large construction machines start moving. First of all, cable trenches for a ductwork system were dug out along the entire runway, in which the electrics for the runway lighting will be installed at a later point. The biggest challenge: By 6am precisely when the first planes start moving, all the machinery must be returned the garage, and all the holes and trenches must be filled in until the four KUTTER crews get back to work again in the evening at 9.30pm.

Complete closure of the airport in autumn

Things will get really exciting in early autumn, when the airport will be completely closed to air traffic for the last two weeks of September. This is when the work will ramp up and be performed day and night in shifts to extend the width of the runway from 30 to 45 metres across its entire length. It will be a race against time as no delays can be afforded, considering the fact that the largest airline Ryanair will suspend all air traffic during this period.

Financed by the free state

The mammoth project is being partially financed by the Free State of Bavaria as well as the airport’s shareholders. The order value of the civil engineering work performed by KUTTER alone equates to EUR 15 million. To get an overview of the large construction project, Bavarian State Minister for Construction and Transport, Dr Hans Reichert, recently visited the site. Together with the airport’s CEO, Ralf Schmid, and Member of Bavarian State Parliament, Klaus Holetschek, KUTTER CEO, Peter Groll, and Head of Division, Andreas Binder visited the site with the politician, explaining the individual work steps and highlighting the particular challenges for both the workers and the machinery.

KUTTER in the media

Naturally, the project is being covered by the media. The press reports regularly on the progress, as do TV channels such as Allgäu-TV, which is often on site and broadcasts impressive footage of what is currently happening on the construction site.

The renovation works are scheduled to be completed in 2020. Besides expanding the runway and replacing the instrument landing system, the luggage halls are also being extended, the apron areas are being widened and a rainwater retention basin is being built.

KUTTER is proud to play a leading role in shaping such an important, regional project and wishes all of the employees involved every success!

Modernization with challenges

The redesign of a building often brings with it exciting possibilities, but also technical challenges, as in one of our current projects - the construction of a new elevator shaft and an in-situ concrete staircase with an exposed concrete look in a fairly tight space in the wheelhouse in Memmingen.

The existing staircase, which consisted of reinforced concrete stairs, an intermediate landing and a floor slab, required extensive underpinning before demolition could take place. Particular care was required as the stairs and platforms had to be removed with minimal vibration so as not to impact the building structure.

The foundation of the new elevator shaft was also a challenging task. Four micropiles were used here, each with a depth of 9.00 meters. This solid base forms the foundation for the future elevator.

With precise planning and execution, we will also successfully complete this project in September.

NO MORE ROLLING AWAY

SHOPPING TROLLEY RETENTION SYSTEM
IN VILSHOFEN

Total lengthapprox. 900 m
Width approx.5 cm

The solution to a very common problem

Shopping trolleys rolling away in one supermarket car park in Vilshofen is a thing of the past. Using our special cutting machinery, we milled a profile into the asphalt in order to create a shopping trolley retention system measuring approximately 900 metres long. This was a really simple solution to a problem that we are all familiar with. The rear wheel of the shopping trolley fits neatly into the recess that is approximately 5 cm, holding the shopping trolley in place. 

We mostly worked at night to prevent any disruption to ongoing operations.

DUST-FREE MILLING

HALL MILLING WORK
IN WEINSHEIM

Special solution for indoor milling

Dust-free and low-vibration milling indoors – we are the specialists. Our video shows exactly how we create cable ducting or profiles in a closed hall.

We filmed the work performed at our customer PRÜM-Türenwerk GmbH in Weinsheim. All the measures were discussed in advance with the customer and adapted precisely to their needs. This enabled us, for instance, to work in halls that still contained warehouse goods, as no dust emissions were created.

Milling work in building structures: fast, clean, precise and cost-effective with KUTTER.

MOBILE COLD MIXING PLANT

A MOBILE PLANT
IN SALZGITTER

Independent and versatile

A mobile plant that replaces lorry journeys between the mixing plant and remote construction sites: KUTTER’s mobile cold mixing plant. Thanks to the separate diesel motor, it can operate independently of the public power supply. The cold mix that is created is suitable for a wide range of different construction projects: motorways, high-quality bearing layers for road and path construction, reinforcement of car parks and parking areas. Watch the video to learn out the diverse applications.


MILLING RECYCLING

GROUND RENOVATION
IN THE BLACK FOREST

A uniform substrate

Uniform and sufficiently load-bearing substrates are the prerequisite for the permanent and damage-free foundation of structures. In the event that the in-situ ground does not have these properties, it can be prepared so that it can be built upon and bear loads, by incorporating limestone and/or cement.

KUTTER carries out a wide range of ground improvement and ground hardening activities, such as in the construction of roads, car parks, industrial premises, airports and rail tracks. We can perform diverse earthwork, such as the creation of dams, embankments or backfilling. The soil stabilisers are also ideal for creating seals in landfill construction.

Thanks to this fast and environmentally friendly procedure, there is no need for time-consuming and costly replacement of soil.

COLD RECYCLING

RENOVATION OF A COUNTRY ROAD IN RADEGAST

Ecological and economical

As many roads in Germany are severely damaged several layers deep, for some time now it has no longer been possible to just replace the surface over and over again. KUTTER are the specialists for the job: we repair the entire structure of the road and permanently increase its load-bearing capacity. KUTTER are pioneers of cold recycling, and we have devoted ourselves to this ecological and economical procedure. The technological leadership acquired in this complex area enables us to maintain the functional properties of roads in the long term.

We renovate traffic areas with as little logistical effort as possible. And we do this with asphalt recycling. Our video shows you exactly how it works and what machines are used.

Construction period04/2021 - 05/2021
Material350,000 m² concrete/hydraulically bound mixture

Renovation of the runway in Leipzig/Halle

The large project to renovate the northern runway at Leipzig airport started with the deployment of a special construction milling machine.

The work included building 9,375 metres of rain run-off channels, among other things. The ideal machine for this is the special construction milling machine from Kutter Leipzig with side-mounted milling drum. The milled material was extracted using suction excavators and disposed of professionally.

Over the next few days, another form of milling was used. This milling work was recently carried out in collaboration with Wirtgen and our workshop at the Leipzig branch.

In addition, ten W250 large milling machines were used to mill a total area of 307,000 m² of concrete and hydraulically bound mixture.

This equates to a total volume of 350,000 tonnes, or the equivalent of around 12,400 loaded semi-trailer tippers!

Bridge demolition on the B37
in Ludwigshafen

Construction period05/2020 - 07/2020
Total surface area10,000 m²
Milling machine usedradio-controlled W 50 milling machine

The overall process

After noticing the damage on the bridge, the City of Ludwigshafen closed the bridge and surrounding area to all forms of traffic. 

As this is a traffic intersection, it caused major disruption for the entire population. 

In order to remove the partly contaminated coating without having to dispose of the entire demolition material, a radio-controlled milling machine with a maximum weight of ten tonnes needed to be used. 

Up until this point, our company did not have a radio-controlled milling machine, therefore within a very short time, the milling specialists at KUTTER developed a W 50 milling machine offering all the required functions, which were converted to radio control. 

Special feature: The machine operator remained on a part of the bridge that was not being worked upon and was held secure by a safety harness on a truck-mounted crane, from where they could operate the machine via remote radio controls. 

The material was placed down on the bridge deck and picked up separately during the demolition work.

MILLIMETRE PRECISION WORK IN BERLIN MITTE

In November 2019, the milling specialists at KUTTER GmbH & Co. KG milled the challenging profile of a drainage channel into a concrete surface.

A 3D system was used for the levelling work. Special feature: The project was for the Senate Administration for the Environment, Urban Mobility, and Climate Action on Karl-Marx-Allee in the heart of Berlin, under which runs an underground train line. For this reason, it was not possible to use large milling machines. Instead, KUTTER performed the 3D milling using a compact device with 1 m milling width, and developed an innovative solution that can safely discharge rainwater.

Work to redesign Karl-Marx-Allee, an avenue in the heart of Berlin measuring up to 72.5 m wide in parts, has been ongoing in several stages since the summer of 2018. In future, there will be less room for cars. Instead there will be wider cycle paths as well as attractive walking paths and open spaces. After removing the bituminous road surfaces, the drainage points and the pavement were replaced.

Drainage channel in the concrete surface

The next step – to create a profile in the concrete surface beneath the asphalt – was challenging from a construction point of view. The profile of a drainage channel was required in order to later ensure the drainage of rainwater along a length of approx. 800 m and a width of 5.75 m. The plans stipulated that the slope had to vary between 2.5% and 3% at distances of 3-5 m. On the remaining 9.25 m width of the road, the profile needed to have a cross slope of 2.5% from the centre to the edge of the road. Based on this geometry, this resulted in a milled depth that constantly varied between 0 and 12 cm. But what’s more, the Berlin underground railway runs beneath parts of Karl-Marx-Allee. Therefore, due to load restrictions, large milling machines could not be used on around 75% of the construction area.

3D milling with a compact machine

In light of this task, the team of milling specialists at KUTTER developed a concept together with the main contractor Matthäi GmbH & Co. KG for the precise profiling of concrete. The machine of choice was a compact milling machine with a 1 m milling width, equipped with a 3D levelling system. This is rather unusual as normally only large machines with a milling width of at least 2 m are used for 3D milling.

Tried and tested for many years

“For almost a decade, we’ve been successfully creating new profiles by means of 3D levelling and have tried out different systems. The variants

incorporating a Totalstation have proven to be the best for a wide range of tasks. Therefore, we were certain this method would be successful for the project in Berlin Mitte,” explains Roland Schmid, Head of Milling at KUTTER in Memmingen. This meant that the milling specialists were able to confidently deliver the required precision of ± 5 mm in accordance with additional technical terms of contract, and create the best conditions for laying the asphalt top structure.


OBERAU TUNNEL

ESCHENLOHE,
GARMISCH PARTENKIRCHEN

ProjectOberau tunnel bypass
Construction period2017-2019

LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL

The overall process

Swiss company Marti AG was awarded the contract to build Oberau tunnel.

The tunnel is essentially constructed using underground excavation with blasting. Once the rough removal of the tunnel cross-section was complete, our specially adapted mining milling machines were deployed to profile the tunnel invert to the exact height level required.

Our machine operators were guided by defined survey points and transferred the data by means of a laser controller which engages directly with the machine controller.

The milled material is loaded directly onto the transport vehicle on site via the integrated loading conveyor. The steep belt conveyors are reinforced with solid steel inserts to prevent damage caused by sharp-edged stone.

Our machines and their performance capacity

The performance capacity of our machines is generally based on the type of stone. This project involved dolomite stone and limestone with associated single-axial compressive strength values.

A further indicator for performance capacity is the fissurisation of the material to be removed, which can be naturally inherent or due to damage caused by stone blasting.

The special task

Another key area of this project was the creation of utility trenches within the tunnel invert. To complete this special task, we used the W 2200 milling machine with lateral milling device, which we had modified in-house and has a milling width of around 65 cm. This way we were able to create trenches that were approximately 70 cm deep.

The benefit of this technique is the fact that the milling machine with an entire operational weight of more than 40 tonnes is positioned centrally above the milling drum.

Quality thanks to years of experience

We have many years of experience in both surface and profile milling and can produce cost-effective results through optimised applications, even in extreme conditions.

The tunnel builders in Central Europe are familiar with the opportunities presented by milling technology, and are already incorporating our technology in the planning and costing phases of their projects.
