Opening of Implenia Passage - innovative HS-EPS compression elements. Up to now, compression elements have been made of steel, making them heavy, expensive and cumbersome to handle. Manuel Entfellner, construction manager for the Semmering Base Tunnel and Implenia Intrapreneur, thought: There's a better way! And today he is presenting a model made of EPS/polystyrene - lighter, cheaper and safer.
Time: 10.00 h
