Le projet
YEAR: 2010–2011
PROJECT: Cerbère Breakwater
COMPANY: Guintoli
CLIENT: City of Cerbère


Historique
The Cerbère project was the first ACCROPODE™ II project carried out in Europe. Guintoli had completed the construction of the core and the underlayer by the end of August 2010. Before the arrival of the October storms, it was essential to rapidly protect the breakwater. IDMer, now operating as CLAS, successfully met this challenge.

Thanks to its independence, CLAS was able to deploy its diver-assisted installation methods, ensuring significantly superior interlocking quality and a higher execution rate than any alternative technical solution promoted by the licence seller.
Key figures
- 628 ACCROPODE™ units of 9 m³ were installed in record time.

Role of CLAS
CLAS was tasked with installing the ACCROPODE™ II armour layer within a very short timeframe, ahead of the storm season.

CLAS a pu déployer ses méthodes de pose assistée par plongeurs, assurant une qualité d’imbrication bien supérieure et une vitesse d’exécution plus élevée que n’importe quelle solution technique alternative promue par le vendeur de licence.
