It was possible because of inhouse capability of Railway engineers and Expertise of World renowned Indian company .(ECC division ) of L&T was involved in Civil & Electrical works, whereas Railway Business Unit (An initiative of L&T in Rolling stock projects) set up the M&P's along with interfacing of the equipments. Working in close coordination with contractors and Sub-contractors Railway achieved completion of project within stipulated timeframe of 40 months (which includes 24 months of original time schedule and additional extensions). It was a challenge for Railways to start civil works in such a difficult site which is surrounded by river bodies from all sides. To add much complication the elevation of plant was lower than the river bed. Also the soil was so loose, railways made use of stone columning for increasing the load-bearing capacity of soil. Nearly 3000 workers were employed during peak construction period and as many as 300 highly skilled engineers of various domains like Mechanical, Electrical, Civil, IT, ECE, Mechatronics etc. were engaged during project implementation. Being in a remote area of Bihar, there was constant fear of unlawful activities by locals, Maoist. To address these issues L&T deployed 24-hour all-round security to plant. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rail Wheel Plant, Bela」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
