Engineering structures and bridge construction

Technology, aesthetics and innovation in harmony

Engineering structures are far more than just functional elements – they combine engineering, design, and sustainability. At Emch+Berger, we plan and implement load-bearing structures that meet the highest technical requirements while simultaneously enhancing the aesthetics of their surroundings. Our solutions are characterised by innovative approaches, far-sighted planning, and holistic integration into the project environment.

From bridges that create landscape features to cut-and-cover tunnels and support structures built under challenging geological conditions, we focus on durable and economical solutions for public road space. In doing so, we take into account both the environment and the specific requirements of our clients.

Our services in the field of engineering structures and bridge construction

• Overall and project management: 
  We take on the holistic management of infrastructure projects. Our experienced team ensures smooth coordination of all phases – from the initial idea to detailed planning and successful implementation.

• Feasibility and concept studies: 
  A solid foundation is crucial for the success of a project. We prepare thorough feasibility studies and innovative concept designs that take comprehensive account of technical, economic, and environmental aspects.

• Structural Engineering: 
  Whether bridges, underpasses, support structures or cut-and-cover tunnels – our structural engineering combines technical precision with creative solutions. Each project is individually adapted to the requirements of the location and its intended use, in order to achieve the best results.

• Structural Maintenance and Monitoring: 
  Maintaining existing structures is essential to extending their lifespan and ensuring safety. We offer comprehensive services for assessment of their condition, maintenance planning and structural monitoring. The insights gained are directly incorporated into the planning of new construction projects.

• Inspection Engineering and Expert Services: 
  We use our expertise to support projects by conducting inspections and providing expert reports on engineering structures, nuclear facilities, and hydroelectric power plants. Our analyses ensure that the highest standards are met.

• Traffic and construction phase planning: 
  To minimise disruptions during the construction phase, we develop efficient construction schedules and optimise traffic flows. Our goal is to ensure smooth operations even during construction work.

• Spatial Design and Visualisation: 
  Our structures blend harmoniously into their surroundings. Through innovative visualisations and meticulous spatial planning, we ensure that every building is also aesthetically pleasing.

• Material management concepts: 
  Sustainability begins with the right choice of materials. We develop concepts that use resources efficiently and make construction projects more economical.
