On September 13th, 2023, the 2000KJ OST rockfall barrier successfully
intercepted the rockfall on 131 County Road in Nantou, Taiwan, with a volume of
20m³ and nearly 48T. Before 2017, frequent rockfall affected the area and caused
a number of deaths and damages to the traffic. Based on the terrain, OST set up
a 2000KJ easy maintenance barrier which enables the easy restoration of the
protection system after cleaning up the blocks and replacing the energy
dissipators. Since then, a number of rockfalls have occurred, which were all
successfully intercepted. Thanks to the rockfall barriers, these essential
traffic routes in Nantou are always being rockfall-proof.
