Very Thin High Performance Precast Concrete Elements as Permanent Schuttering and Part of Final Composite Structures

Very Thin High Performance Precast Concrete Elements as Permanent Schuttering and Part of Final Composite Structures 1431 954 Concretan

Konstantinos Zavliaris M Sc. Ph.D C.E
1st CONCRETE INNOVATION CONFERENCE: OSLO Norway 11 – 13 June 2014.

Utilization of very thin (20-50 mm ) Precast Concrete Elements of High Performance Concrete used as permanent Shuttering for the cast in place Load bearing Members can be a very efficient construction method in terms of structural Integrity of the final structure, quality, short construction time and low cost. These benefits can be further developed by connecting the Precast concrete Elements to the corresponding cast in place in common Action as final composite Elements…
