Karun-1 Dam

Traction elevator in the dam's concrete structure

What this project demanded

Karun-1 is the greatest travel height the company has installed: 140 metres in a concrete structure, with a traction elevator. What distinguishes the project is its scale in a single continuous rise — at that height, accuracy of guide-rail alignment over the full travel governs the work, and it is carried out inside a structure that was already built and was not designed around ancillary equipment.

This commentary is our technical reading of what this class of project requires, written from the recorded scope of work.
