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.

    Advances in asphalt plant technology were in major evidence at the bauma 2016 exhibition in Munich - Mike Woof writes One of the most apparent developments at bauma 2016 was the strong focus on asphalt plant technology. The massive physical presence of the asphalt plants could be seen from a distance, right across the showground, particularly the 50m-high machine Benninghoven had opted to exhibit. However, other plant systems from rival firms Ammann, Lintec and Marini, as well as Turkish company E-MAK, c

    Doka’s SKE50 automatic climbing formwork are being used on two suspension towers for a new multi-lane cable-stayed bridge alongside an older viaduct in Zaporozhye, south-east Ukraine. On completion, this large-scale infrastructure project is set to massively reduce the traffic burden on the existing bridge and significantly improve the daily traffic situation at what is a major river crossing. The two separate roadway slabs are cable-stayed off twin H-shaped suspension towers 150metres high. Lead project co

    Innovative solutions are being applied to the construction of bridge structures as Patrick Smith reports. RMD Kwikform Iberica has engineered and supplied specialist formwork and falsework for construction of the much-needed Monteporreiro Viaduct in northern Spain. The viaduct will connect Monteporreiro with the Benedictine Monastery of San Bieito Lérez on the other side of the river, and in the process will ease congestion in the nearby town of Pontevedra, diverting some 5,000 vehicles/day.

    A team of Greek and German PERI engineers have developed a comprehensive formwork and scaffolding solution for the T4 bridge on the A7 motorway in Greece. The 160km long A7 connects Kalamata in the south to Corinth in the northwest of the Peloponnese peninsula. On one stretch of the motorway a 390m long arched bridge – known as T4 – is being used to close the gap between Paradisia and Tsakona. Set for completion in early 2014, two-thirds of the 22m wide bridge superstructure will be suspended on a steel arc
