Soletanche Bachy France has been awarded as part of a consortium, for the \u201cFoundation\u201d package for the new Mirabeau Tower in Marseille<\/h1><\/div>

The consortium was able to listen and develop its offer to respond in the best way to the needs of the project.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>

The consortium Soletanche Bachy France<\/a> (lead company) and InterTravaux wins the \u201cFoundation\u201d package of the Mirabeau Tower in Marseille. It is a high-rise building<\/a> with 21 floors, standing at 85m, above seven basement levels and offering 170 parking spaces. The project led by CMA-CGM and Bouygues Immobilier, is in particular intended to house the new CMA-CGM head office, whose staff will ultimately occupy half of this new building.<\/p>\n

The \u201cFoundation\u201d package includes the diaphragm wall<\/a>, earthworks, struts<\/a>, dewatering and decontamination.<\/p>\n<\/div>

The work to be carried out<\/h2><\/div>

The works are to be carried out on a reduced plot of 1,300 sq. m corresponding to the current Mirabeau Tower (nine floors) which is undergoing demolition.<\/p>\n

This package involves a 22m excavation protected by a 1m-thick diaphragm wall, anchored 32m deep in Marseille\u2019s Lower Oligocene strata.<\/p>\n

Construction of the diaphragm wall will begin after demolition of the current tower (excluding slab and piles) and after backfilling up to a height of 2m in order to clear the water table. The diaphragm wall should take three months, in two shifts.<\/p>\n

The presence of the adjoining boundaries will require complete instrumentation monitoring, entrusted to Sixense<\/a> (a company of Soletanche Freysinet<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Once the walls are complete, a critical phase of this package will begin in summer 2020, when teams will need to carry out the following activities:<\/p>\n
