IKT-Pipe Jacking Simulator ND 1600
A pipeline of five consecutive concrete pipes can be surcharged with jacking forces of up to 8 MN. The facility allows for simulation of different jacking lines like curves or steering movements. We use 8 horizontal hydraulic jacks for lateral movements, 4x2MN jacks for driving pressure, and about 40 pressure pads for bedding conditions. By this, e.g. different materials for pressure transmission can be tested under identical and realistic conditions and current structural models for pipe jacking and loading conditions may be verified (or falsified).

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
