Consortium ATB, whose members are Pizzarotti, Condotte, SELI, Collini, Bilfinger Berger, Alpine Bau and Jaeger, has been awarded the contract to build the Aica-Mules access adit to the Brenner base tunnel and commissioned its construction to SELI using a TBM. SELI will supply the TBM and ancillary equipment, bore the tunnel and install the support. The excavated diameter is 6.3 m (31 sq m) and the finished inner diameter is 5.6 m. The main underground structure is the Mules access adit, 35 sq m in cross-section, 10% gradient and length of 1,800 m. This first lot will mainly cross the Bressanone granite, a hard rock formation generally of good quality. The high cover and the presence of faults and fractured zones could make tunnelling critical at certain spots. The consortium already owns the TBM (a Wirth machine previously used for the San Francisco project in Ecuador by Odebrecht) and is modifying its diameter and revising it in its facilities. Click ec/18  and here . The supply includes the a double shield rock TBM with back-up and conveyor belt for rock haulage. It is planned to install both precast concrete segments and traditional supports (bolts, wire mesh, steel arches and shotcrete). The rock haulage will be performed by means of a new conveyor belt supplied by Marti Technik. Tunnelling is programmed to commence in April 2008.
