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.

    Doka’s formwork expertise is currently in demand during the construction of one of the busiest motorway viaducts in Germany. The 400m six-lane Lahntal Bridge in Limburg dates from the early 1960s. Every day about 100,000 vehicles cross the bridge that spans the valley of the River Lahn. But traffic loads have increased sharply, so a new bridge is being built sited just a few metres west of the old viaduct. The new Lahntal viaduct will measure a massive 43.5m in width, enabling eight lanes plus hard shoul
