Accurate strength measurement from Doka
With the Load-bearing tower d3, 203 Doka is expanding its product portfolio for Southeast Asia and the Middle East. Load-bearing tower d3 is a product enhancement of a successful Doka load-bearing system and combines the benefits of existing systems. The d3 is designed for particularly tall shoring heights and high loads. Applications are in building construction as well as civil and industrial construction.

It is not required to dismantle and reassemble the shoring towers for repositioning and manual reposition is possible with the help of wheels. Height can be adjusted as hot dip galvanised frames are available in 0.9m 1.2m and 1.8m height. Height adjustment is possible to the last millimetre.

Also, the Doka UniKit shoring system was developed for the Latin American markets. Doka UniKit is the ideal modular system for transferring heavy loads. With the modular system grid, large-volume load-bearing structures are produced quickly and easily. It allows for a variety of uses such as infrastructure and power plant builds.

    An unusual application of formwork took place recently in France, while formwork using one particular engineering construction kit was used for the first time in Poland. Guy Woodford reports An 80m long wild game underpass is an innovative feature of the Route Nationale 88 (RN 88) expansion in south-west France. For construction of the arched underpass tunnel, a PERI tunnel formwork carriage using VARIOKIT engineering construction kit was used. Thanks to the equipment’s easy handling, along with pre-assembl

    Imaginative formwork, often using modular components, is helping to shape some challenging bridges worldwide. Patrick Smith reports Traffic volumes in and around Prague have swollen massively in recent years, pushing the existing road network to the limits of its capacity. To permanently ease congestion in the Czech capital's centre, a multi-lane orbital motorway is under construction as a high capacity bypass for central Prague and to link up all the motorways and other major highways radiating from the ci
