Special foundation engineering

Although in most construction projects the work performed by the specialized civil engineering sector is no longer visible once construction is complete, these measures are indispensable for the subsequent progress of the project. After all, Special foundation engineering forms the foundation for many structures associated with Building Construction and civil engineering, such as Pits, tunnels, bridges, and much more. The application of complex techniques and the selection of appropriate equipment require increasingly specialized knowledge and practical experience.

Over more than 30 years of specialization in the field of specialized civil engineering, Max Bögl has also steadily expanded its range of services and adapted to the changing demands of the construction market. Today, the group of companies has at its disposal a powerful combination of state-of-the-art machinery and highly qualified employees who take on any challenge in special foundation engineering, both domestically and abroad. With a broad range of services, including excavation shoring, foundations, stabilization, grouting, groundwater lowering, and the jet grouting method, Max Bögl carries out projects of all sizes and levels of difficulty as a general contractor or Subcontractor.

Pipe Jacking

The underground installation of pipes accounts for an ever-increasing share of modern sewer, pipeline, and utility line construction.  Partly dilapidated sewer and utility systems in cities, combined with increasingly dense development, are creating a growing need for trenchless installation methods that preserve the surface and minimize disruption to urban traffic and the surrounding environment.

With technical expertise and in-house machinery manufacturing, Max Bögl’s Pipe Jacking division offers technical and cost-effective solutions in all areas of modern pipe jacking—including trenchless methods that minimize surface disruption and associated emissions. All necessary machinery, ranging from simple manual excavation to high-tech full-cut technology, is developed, designed, and manufactured in-house, or adapted and modified on-site to meet project-specific requirements.

Ground Freezing Technology

In all ground freezing projects, engineers take advantage of the fact that frozen soil has significantly higher strength and is also impermeable to water. Ground freezing technology is characterized by high safety standards and, consequently, high reliability. No chemical residues remain in the soil after the freezing process; the frozen soil mass thaws completely once the process is complete, thereby preventing any permanent alteration of the aquifer.

The Max Bögl Group possesses modern and field-proven equipment technologies as well as specialized personnel with many years of experience in executing complex ground freezing projects. The interdisciplinary collaboration among various specialized fields—such as refrigeration technology, plant engineering, tunnel construction, civil engineering, and special foundation engineering—enables us to develop and implement innovative solutions. As a result, ground freezing is increasingly becoming a flexible and economically attractive construction method for our group of companies.

Structural Repair and Mastic Asphalt Waterproofing

Our infrastructure consists of a wide variety of structures made of concrete or steel. These materials are constantly exposed to environmental influences and external mechanical stresses and are therefore not permanently durable. As a result, regular maintenance and extensive preservation of transportation structures are the norm. Maintenance significantly extends the service life of these structures. Max Bögl addresses these needs with a competent and experienced team.

The group has over 40 years of experience, as well as the necessary specialists and expertise to correctly identify and assess the complex causes of damage and to repair the damage. Our employees possess the technical expertise and necessary qualifications to carry out the execution of repair work using high-quality materials and machinery, on schedule and in accordance with industry standards. In addition, we advise building owners and architects on the development of suitable concepts, procedures, and techniques for repairs.
