As has been reported in Caunton Engineering’s Web Site News previously, the company’s structural steelwork is playing a pivotal role in the HS2 project, forming the all-important facilities that will enable the construction of the Chiltern tunnels and the Colne Valley Viaduct.
The initial phase of construction for this huge project includes the work currently being undertaken north west of London and just inside of the M25 motorway. Here a number of temporary steel-framed buildings are being erected, pictured here is “Building Number Ten”, which will produce precast sections for the nearby 16km-long Chiltern tunnels and the 3.4km-long Colne Valley Viaduct.
