Assignment
Sweco Belgium’s commission involved the study of the sewage system drainage, a study for providing a new water seal on the tunnel tube of a regional road under the runway as well as the quality survey of the runway itself.
Expansion
Furthermore, the commission was extended to a full 3D survey of both the aboveground and underground infrastructure. Sweco’s multidisciplinarity with expertise like mobile mapping, geodata and sewer renovation, brought in by domestic and foreign teams, guarantees the right approach. In addition to internal and extern supervision of the work, Sweco is involved in the quality survey.
