Jackcontrol develops and markets systems for the optimization and quality assurance of construction methods for microtunneling and underground pipe jacking that do without the need for digging trenches. Based on the research results obtained at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Zurich, together with the firm's own current research work, various products and services are being developed, which as far as possible use existing pipe jacking equipment that ensure safe execution and quality assurance of the construction method and extend the range of application.   Thus Jackcontrol sees its role as a partner of pipe-jacking firms, clients and planners for the safe and efficient execution of demanding pipe jacking projects. The range of services includes:
  • Design and delivery of the pressure transmission system (the hydraulic joint)
  • Real-time monitoring systems for pipe jacking and microtunneling
  • Pipe structural design
  • Planning and design of structures (eliminating the need for trenches) as the general planner or specialist planner including construction site management
  • Consulting services for clients and design engineers
  • Specialist expertise in the field of pipe jacking and microtunneling
  • Commissioned and project-related product development
