UltraTest GmbH’s Post

𝗘𝘅𝗰𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗡𝗲𝘄𝘀! 🎉 𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗚𝗥𝗜𝗗 has received general building approval (abZ) and general type approval (aBG) from the German Institute for Structural Engineering (DIBt) as the first carbon reinforcement grid. This approval allows the innovative 𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗚𝗥𝗜𝗗 to be used as single or multi-layer tensile reinforcement in concrete elements in accordance with the new DAfStb guidelines. Thus, the path for planning and construction with #CarbonConcrete is now clear! 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗳𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗯𝗼𝗻 𝗿𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲: •    Exceptional tensile strength •    Corrosion immunity •    Extremely lightweight Congratulations to all the stakeholders and colleagues who contributed to this long approval process! You can see the amount of effort in the smiles on their faces 😊 In a seismic country like Turkey, carbon reinforcements offer a critical solution for structural longevity due to their high durability and long lifespan, especially where steel reinforcements may fall short. This innovation could be a great option for increasing the lifespan of concrete elements in high-risk earthquake areas, and its widespread adoption represents a significant step for the construction industry. Although composite reinforcements are not commonly used in seismic regions due to their lack of ductility and brittle behavior, their high performance will lead to more critical applications and they are expected to play an important role in the construction sector in the future. I would be pleased to hear your thoughts on this significant development. Feel free to share your comments!

Modular bridge construction with carbon concrete precast element and innovative joint sealing strips The demands on transport infrastructure are constantly evolving and present those involved with ever new challenges. The need to modernise existing bridges and also find innovative solutions for sustainable infrastructure has led to a pioneering project - the construction of a new bridge on a federal road near Freiberg in Saxony, Germany. The bridge construction took just one day using precast elements. Hentschke Bau has not only risen to this challenge, but has also focussed on modern materials such as carbon concrete and advanced sealing technologies.

This design guide from the Concrete Reinforcing Steel Institute (CRSI) focuses on the analysis and design of reinforced concrete diaphragms, which are critical components in resisting lateral loads in structures such as wind and seismic forces. #ReinforcedConcrete #DiaphragmDesign #LateralLoadResistance #StructuralEngineering #CRSIDesignGuide

Unlock structural versatility with ALUMEGA: Elevating post-and-beam systems to unprecedented heights! ALUMEGA is the connector that standardizes beam-to-beam and beam-to-post joints for post-and-beam systems, even with large spans. Rv,k up to #1470kN. With Alumega post and beam connector, the theoretical behaviour assumed in the design of timber-to-timber connections is enabled: It acts as post and beam connectors that allows free rotation of the beam at the ends In case of earthquake or wind, the connection follows the column rotation preserving shear resistance for gravitational loads from the floor and reducing structural damage The possibility of placing several modules side by side makes it possible to solve all connections on timber, concrete and steel.

There is a widely held misconception that driven precast, prestressed concrete piles (PCPs) are principally for use in marine and river structures. As a result, PCPs are often prematurely eliminated from consideration during the preliminary design phase of other projects. PCPs are a high-performance, durable, and cost-effective solution that are typically a great choice for many deep foundation projects. Learn more about the many advantages of PCPs in this Aspire Fall 2023 article. https://hubs.li/Q02r1KSN0 #howprecastbuilds Roy Eriksson Eriksson Technologies, Inc.
