fischer heavy-duty fastenings in the Guiyang Metro Line 1
Guiyang Metro Line 1 is under construction from 2014 to 2018. Once completed, it will run from the northwest to the south of the capital of the southwest Chinese province of Guizhou. The route will comprise 24 stop-off points over a total length of 34 km.

“During the construction of the underground railway, those involved were confronted with complex geological and hydrological conditions as well as natural disasters such as earthquakes,” says Jiang Zong, Managing Director of fischer China, describing the framework conditions. "That’s why it was important to select high-quality products that meet the high requirements. After intensive consultation, the experts quickly recognised the great advantages of the products and services from fischer." The specialist partners benefited from the solutions from a single source, with which all fastening projects could be implemented safely, economically and easily. This included the installation of electrical cables, communication systems, protective doors and fire extinguishing systems. In total, the installers installed around 60,000 times the FIS HB injection mortar with the powerful FHB compound anchor for fixing the brackets of the contact network for the energy supply of the electric vehicles and stationary equipment. The system achieves the highest load values in cracked concrete, requiring fewer fixing points and smaller anchor plates.
The FZA fischer cyclone undercut anchor was used with approximately 660,000 sets to fix the brackets for the ring network and communication systems. With its special undercut technology, the fastener ensures firm connections and maximum safety. After insertion of the anchor, the expansion sleeve is driven over the taper with the corresponding setting tool and the undercut drill hole is filled in a positive-locking manner. The installers installed a further 20,000 FZA anchors for attaching the fire extinguishing systems. The Fischer RG M internal thread anchor was used 12,000 times in combination with the FIS EM injection mortar for fastening the protective doors. The system allows maximum load introduction into cracked concrete and is also approved for seismic applications.   

Previously, Fischer had been involved in several projects to expand the Beijing S-Bahn network. These were lines 6, 8, 9, 10, 14, 15, 16, the airport line and also the S1 metro line. The company also supported the construction and expansion of many other railways in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Wuxi, Wuhan, Tianjin, Shenzhen, Ningbo and other cities. With its Chinese subsidiary, fischer supports its customers in the Middle Kingdom throughout the entire construction process with suitable products and services.
