New thrills on the “Karacho” rollercoaster
Project data
| Project | Construction of the “Karacho” rollercoaster in Tripsdrill |
| Location | Cleebronn near Heilbronn |
| Purpose | new rollercoaster, 30 m high and capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in only 1.6 seconds, allows 960 riders per hour to experience the effects of gravity combined with speed. |
| Formwork systems |
|
| Special features | Among the particular challenges faced by the Amos team were the short construction time of only 6 months, the difficult weather conditions - it rained almost every day - and the different levels of the foundations. The foundations were almost all to be concreted separately so as to prevent transmission of the vibrations from the operating rollercoaster. Almost all the concrete buildings are completely or partially covered with earth and therefore cannot be seen by the visitors. |
