BACKGROUND
The ECRL is a landmark infrastructure project that will significantly enhance connectivity across east coast of Peninsular Malaysia. It involves the construction of numerous tunnels (both NATM and TBM tunnels) along its 665 km route, presenting unique challenges in geotechnical engineering, tunnelling, and trenchless technology.
The technical visit will be held on the third day following the conference ie on 12 September 2025. Participants will be transported to the site via organised coach from the conference venue. All necessary safety equipment, including helmets, safety vests, and boots, will be provided. A detailed briefing will precede the site visit, outlining safety procedures and providing background information on the selected project.
Participants will be shown the K62 Klang Beam Yards, a walk into the production area which has two production lines. (each 455m Long). The yard is required to produce 2,148 beams and has storage capacity of 312 beams. The production will showcase the beams to be used in the tunnel from Port Klang (North Port) to Rawang and to Serendah. ECRL Section 9 features the largest T-beam fabrication and launching operation across the entire East Coast Rail Link project. Two major precast yards, K38 Rawang Beam Yard and K62 Klang Beam Yard, support the production of a combined 4,238 precast T-beams, supplying superstructure overview for the elevated bridge within the section and at the Rawang Bestari Jaya Tunnel. These yards operate on a large industrial scale with advanced automation, ensuring efficient, high-quality, and high-volume beam production aligned with the project’s demanding schedule. Key Fact
With a combined area of over 68,000m2, Section 9’s beam yards represent the largest fabrication scale among all ECRL sections. Visit will show the Fabrication Process. The T Beam Fabrication process follows a systemic workflow integrating both conventional methods and high-level automation
NOTE
• Participants shall register and depart ONLY from KLCC • The visit is strictly limited to 30 participants registered on a “first-come first-served” basis.
