Support structure for the EHB of the Audi e-tron double-track production line
The project of the support structure for the EHB of the Audi e-tron double-track production line.
D.A.L. company was a subcontractor in the scopes of structural planning, static calculations and executive documentation. Audi for the first time created a fully electric SUV with a own weight of about 2.9 tons. A special EHB track was designed as a double rail, which allows it to go round corners – great for such a heavy vehicle. Audi’s electric SUV weighs more than twice as much as the 1.18 tons Audi A1.
The support structure was designed as a frame structure, supported on concrete floor binding joists at a level of approx. 8 metres. The EHB track was suspended to the structure, together with the necessary hangers and walkaways, platforms for installations. The entire steel structure weighs 1503 tons.
Special challenges
Very heavy loads from the transported vehicle – over 3 tons.
What made the project succesfull?
