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.

    There is a great deal of innovation across the concrete plant, pump and truck mixer sector. Guy Woodford looks at what some of the sector’s biggest names are offering. CIFA managing director Davide Cipolla believes the Zoomlion-owned Italian firm has “not reached the limit” of what it can offer customers, thanks to a significant investment in research and development. Speaking about a US$2.57 million-a-year (€2million) R&D investment in CIFA and some Zoomlion products over the last five years Cipolla, who i
  • Intelligent monitoring of concrete pours cuts time on site

    Intelligent monitoring of concrete strengths is helping contractors shave weeks off construction programmes, according to formwork specialist Doka. Its Concremote system measures the temperature of the concrete, converts that to predicted strength and allows the contractor to strike the formwork when the concrete is ready – rather than waiting for a set number of days. “Concretemote is being used on 20 to 25 projects,” said Doka’s director of research and development Johann Peneder.
