The revised installation instructions demonstrate the proper use of Pecafil^® in excavation support and help ensure safe execution.

The use of Stremaform^® underwater simplifies and minimises the submerged construction work. This simple installation of the substantial units reduces the overall cost of underwater work to a minimum.

For optimum shear force transmission, load-bearing precast concrete sections can be connected to the internal structure using Egcobox^® thermal breaks.

The MAX FRANK Group continues its generational transition in Engineering. The handover from Manfred Hanrath to Moritz Michel combines experience with fresh ideas.

Understand fibre concrete distance tubes correctly and use them purposefully to construct concrete walls safely and efficiently. For watertight results, they should be coordinated with the structural design, temperature, and a suitable sealing solution.

The requirements were also met under elevated test conditions (12.0 bar over 7 days).

In larger building projects, crane foundations are integrated directly into the floor slab and are the first areas to be concreted. Stremaform^® is useful to get connected and sealed this construction situation.

The new installation guide for Stremaform^® provides a practical overview of planning, installation, and typical applications of construction joints in concrete construction.
