Our projects Ropeway design and construction

The 7,899.9 m tricable gondola in Vietnam holds the world record for length without intermediate stations. BCI designed the stations and five towers – including three of the world's tallest concrete towers – and provided construction supervision.

This tricable gondola on Vietnam's coast carries more than 5,000 passengers per hour to Cat Ba Island. BauCon International designed the stations, towers and the complex offshore pile foundations.

Opened in 2017, the Eibsee cable car runs up to the Zugspitze and holds three world records: a 1,945 m difference in elevation, a 3,213 m span and a 127 m aerial tramway tower

Since 2024, a new Doppelmayr gondola has been running to “Heaven's Gate” on Tianmen Mountain in China. BCI mastered the extremely demanding foundation design in very confined spaces.

30-TGD Fansipan
Mount Fansipan (Phan Xi Pang) in Vietnam, 3,143 m high and known as the “Roof of Indochina”, can be reached via the Fansipan Legend tricable gondola (6,326 m long), opened in 2016.

Opened in 2016, the Ha Long Bay cable car in Vietnam is 2,165 m long and uses record-breaking towers (up to 188.88 m) so as not to obstruct shipping.

Opened in 2014, the Pardatschgratbahn in Ischgl connects the village centre with the mountain. Its top station, built on permafrost, can be repositioned hydraulically to compensate for ice movements.
