Trade Journals for the Concrete Industry

Nanodur® Compound 5941 is a special binding agent for Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC) made by Dyckerhoff AG. Its special properties enable cement bound concrete to also be used outside the construction industry. Structural applications are illustrated by the examples of adhered stairs at the Bau trade fair in Munich, wardrobe panels for the Bible museum in Frankfurt and the fair-faced concrete façade of the Ferchau office building in Gummersbach. Examples from mechanical engineering illustrate the requirements that have to be met for solid machine beds and frames and how these challenges with regard to accuracy and freedom from cracks can be overcome with concrete elements manufactured on the basis of Nanodur Compound 5941.
