Excellence in engineering and construction has no borders and has a Spanish seal. FCC Construction has been transforming our cities for 120 years, crossing borders and continents, and improving people’s quality of life through complex infrastructures and executing the most emblematic construction projects on the planet: bridges that connect cultures, soccer stadiums that define cities , tunnels that cross mountains, subways and railway projects that connect people, or museums that house historical art.
Pioneering projects in innovation and sustainability
The progress and development of projects FCC Construction It has also marked that of the cities and countries where its works are carried out, becoming one of the 30 most important construction companies worldwide, and tenth in Europe. In addition, the company shows a commitment to digitalization and positioning its projects as levers of social, economic and environmental transformation.
The digital revolution has also reached the world of infrastructure, transforming the traditional way of construction. In Norway, Sota Bridge is the demonstration of the landing of new technologies when it comes to laying out roads. This fully digital suspended bridge becomes the largest in the world and its construction uses the BIM methodology (Building Information Modeling, for its acronym in English), Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Augmented Virtual Reality and other machinery equipment with cutting-edge technology.
This project will improve travel between Bergen and the island of Sotra, off the west coast of Norway. For this, the construction of two twin tunnels of 4.6 kilometers in length and a four-lane bridge of about 900 meters. The new road system will have a space dedicated to public transportation, as well as access for pedestrians and bicycles.
Beyond the Ocean the excavation of the Guillermo Gaviria tunnel has just been completed, which becomes the longest and deepest tunnel in Latin America. This road infrastructure will transform the transportation and logistics of Antioquia, Central and Southwestern Colombia, in turn promoting the development of the ports in Urabá (Puerto Antioquía, Puerto Darién and Puerto Pisisi), connecting Medellín and Urabá in less than four hours and a half and creating a radical change in the route to the sea of Antioch.
Transforming cities in Spain
In our country, the Museum of Royal Collections becomes the most technically complex museum. For its implementation, carried out with the least impact on the environment, containment screens have been used and the site emptied, in addition to executing the structure of the building and the architectural envelope of the museum, its roofs and facades, and the execution of the works of carpentry and locksmithing, as well as the urbanization of the surroundings, becoming one of the main cultural infrastructures built in the 21st century.
Another of the great emblems of FCC Construction is the design and execution of the renovation of the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium until it becomes the best stadium in the world. The project is an international engineering challenge that was born with the ambition of transform an old sports infrastructure into an avant-garde and universal icona unique stadium with maximum comfort, security and cutting-edge technology to provide fans with unforgettable experiences.
Thousands of kilometers of subway around the world
Canada, Peru, Panama, Qatar, Riyadh and Madrid are some of the countries and cities in which FCC has developed thousands of kilometers of metro, infrastructure linked to people that bears its seal and improves the lives of citizens. In Wales, the extension of the A465 has a length of 17.3 kilometers and will complete the unfolding of the A465 motorway, enabling the generation of a set of benefits for local companies that participate in the development of the work.
These emblematic projects—to which must be added hospitals, biomedical cancer treatment centers, seaports, etc.—not only demonstrate the technical capacity and innovation of FCC Construction, but also underline its commitment to sustainable development. and improving global infrastructure. Each work carried out is a testament to the positive impact that engineering and construction can have on communities around the world, connecting, protecting and transforming the lives of their inhabitants. FCC Construction is evolving towards new generation projects that mark the future of infrastructure, demonstrating its ability to anticipate and satisfy the demands of the modern world.
