Prefab elements and Tilt-up manufacturing with UHPC®

UHPC® concrete are very suitable for processing
on the construction site in the Tilt-up system or
in precast concrete plant. Residential housing
and industrial buildings of all sizes can be
manufactured using these two systems.

UHPC® Ultra High Performance Concrete has a
long list of advantages over standard concrete
to name but a few:

- Extremely high compressive strength

- High tensile strength
- Very fast strength development
- UHPC® elements have a very high production  
  accuracy. If the mold is exact, the element is exact.
- High chemical resistant
- Absolute corrosion resistant
- Even small layers already lead to an absolute
  waterproofness.
- Customer requirements such as burglary resistant,
  fire resistant, storm resistant and acoustic
  properties as well as noise reduction can be easily
  met.
- Combinations with a high-performance insulation
  layer reduce energy costs by several times
  compared to wooden houses or brick houses.
  The required wall thicknesses are only a fraction
  of comparable housing designs.

Tilt-up elements
Tilt-up elements are manufactured using locally
produced molds and concrete in a wide variety
of UHPC® concretes produced by us achieve 70%
of their nominal strength in just 48 hours, the
average nominal strength of our UHPC® concretes
is 120 MPa / 17400 psi.

Due to the compessive and flexuaral strength, it
is possible to work with considerably smaller
wall thicknesses, which leads to substantial material
reductions and costs.
The extremely fast development of strength leads
to faster assembly, the overall completion time is
significantly reduced, which can also lead to cost
reduction.

Precast elements
Prefabricated systems have been used in Europe
for more than 50 years. There is a huge amount
of standard residential house design variations
from small houses, garages, workshops to entire
building complexes.
Architects design exceptional prefabricated houses
according to customer requirements. The elements
are already manufactured and prepared weeks in
advance in a precast plant, so that only a few days
are needed on the construction site for a complete
completion.
The advantage is the very small footprint on site.
The elements come with trucks in the correct
assembly order on the construction site. A crane
positions the elements and very few fitters are
needed for assembly.
It can be installed all year round, regardless of
the weather contitions.
