Doka’s UniKit is a quick way to support heavy concrete pours

Doka’s new UniKit is a modular shoring system for heavy civil engineering applications. Designed to be quick and easy to erect in a number of different configurations, UniKit provides a steel-girder like structure which can support loads from bridge deck or beam concrete pours. “It’s an efficient way to construct infrastructure without stopping existing infrastructure – such as roads – running underneath,” said Doka’s director of research and development Johann Peneder.

    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
