Trade Journals for the Concrete Industry

With a multi-angle saw (MAS) from Echo Precast Engineering, Belgium, the Franconian building materials manufacturer Dennert is focusing on higher automation in the production of prestressed hollow core slabs. At the Schlüsselfeld location, the company has been producing prestressed hollow core slabs on five production lines for many years. The 1.20 metre-wide prefabricated elements with formwork-smooth underside are used wherever free room design is required, as they allow XXL spans to be bridged without disturbing columns or load-bearing walls. In addition, they have very good fire protection and sound insulation properties and are therefore particularly suitable for multi-storey buildings. They are mounted quickly and can bear loads immediately, which leads to shorter construction times and corresponding cost savings.
