A new tunnel formwork system from Pilosio reduces the time needed for assembly. Made from standard components, this can be used for a wide range of geometries.
Formwork from Doka is playing a key role in constructing the airport’s buildings. At times as many as 80 cranes will be in use. Two-thirds of the formwork for the first construction phase are supplied by Austrian experts for formwork solutions, Doka. On this build the Doka engineers are combining in particular Timber formwork beams H20 eco and H20 top and load-bearing towers, plus Framed formwork Framax Xlife and Frami Xlife and Large-area formwork Top 50. The formwork systems from Doka are in use in many a
This month we look at two new methods which are allowing concrete to be tested on the spot, and [over the page] we catch up on the latest news from concrete testing equipment suppliers - Kristina Smith writes
Sometimes test results can be very bad news. If the concrete pavement or bridge abutment has already been poured, and if the concrete does not meet the specification, the outcome could be very expensive remedial work.
Italian firm Marcegaglia has developed a new range of steel road safety barriers that is said to be versatile and cost effective. The units meet containment levels N2 to H4 and can be specified for different options in terms of working width levels (W). The line-up includes a dedicated system for motorcyclist protection designed to be fitted to all existing guardrails, a new P4 energy absorbing terminal system for barriers and a renewed range of steel New Jersey barriers, with optional integrated noise prot
