The installation of the stay-cables for the Ain Houala railway bridge

Freyssinet has successfully completed the supply and installation of the stay-cables for the Ain Houala railway bridge, which carries the Rabat/Tangiers high-speed rail line.

Our teams in Morroco installed 40 stay-cables, with 19 and 27 strands each, using cutting-edge mechanically-welded saddles embedded in the pylons.

Our expertise also included prestressing the deck and pylons, with advanced Tetron® and neoprene bearing devices boasting an impressive 26,600 kN capacity for the pylons!

Congratulations to all the teams involved in the project, including the Major Projects department and FPC Italy, for their dedication and fruitful collaboration.
