We Build a Krainer wall with reused train ties

We resume the Circular Transformation series from the works of the Palencia Norte - Amusco high-speed rail line, where our colleagues Jorge Benavides, Rebeca Lobato and Luis Vega explain how we have recycled concrete sleepers to make a Krainer type retaining wall.

We are in Palencia, in the works of the high speed section of 20.7km Palencia Norte - Amusco, belonging to the Palencia-Aguilar de Campoo HSR line.

Here we have developed a Krainer type retaining wall with disused concrete sleepers from the old Palencia railroad line. Do you want to know how?

Jorge, Rebeca and Luis tell us about the challenges involved in creating the Krainer wall with reused concrete sleepers instead of traditional wooden logs and the positive impact we generated. The main function of this innovative structure is to stabilize slopes and mitigate erosion problems.

Rewatch other Circular Transformation installments.
