Egis is a pioneer in many areas: design of tunnels and other underground structures, the use of the first Slurry Shield Tunnel Boring Machine in France, new track laying techniques, the conversion of existing networks into automatic systems and the modernisation of equipment. Our extensive experience and the expertise of its engineers has made Egis the leading engineering and consulting company for metros in France and a key player worldwide. Egis’s teams are skilled both in the management of large complex projects and in the technical aspects such as track equipment, power supply, stations, operating systems, signalling, etc.) Jean-François Cazes Egis Senior Executive Vice President International & Major Projects Olivier Bouvart Egis Rail Chief Executive Officer 2 | 3 underground works and viaducts civil engineering in urban environments Today we use mostly Earth Pressure Balance or Slurry Shield Tunnel Boring Machines (TBMs). TBMs limit disturbance to the urban areas and networks while producing smooth tunnel walls and are thus the most Egis JMI expertise Underground The superb engineering structures efficient and cost-effective solution. designed by Jean Muller (engineer works and architect, 1925-2005) are of techniques international renown and led to the creation of the firm Jean Muller International (which has since become Egis JMI). 1 Slurry Shield Tunnel Boring Machine Egis designed and built the Focus on the Lyon (France) metro, complete metro network 2 Cut-and-cover which is highly automated retaining structure < Construction of the SOBRR viaduct tried and tested expertise (one line of which is (Southern Outer Bangkok Ring Road) Excavation by sections driverless) and much 3 appreciated by its users. 4 Drill-and-blast Contract EPCM(1) of the southern extension The four lines have enabled LINE B (1.7km) crossing under the Rhone river and the people of Lyon to including a new station with stabling and reconnect with their city, due INTERVIEW turnaround area.
