How-to's with MAX FRANK

In order to protect overbuilt existing structures such as tunnels or channels from the load of a new building situated above, a load-free separation layer can be created between the existing structure and the new building using the Egcovoid^® void former.

The MAX FRANK permanent formwork Pecafil^® can be used for foundation formwork, where it also proves advantageous in combination with prefabricated reinforcement cages.

In urban areas, the supply & positioning of media ducts in road construction is becoming increasingly important. The universal formwork material Pecafil^® in U-shape is particularly suitable as formwork for concreting due to its quick and easy installation.

When sealing the surface of bored concrete piles, a flat surface is required, which can be achieved with the installation of the Pecafil^® permanent formwork.

The use of the MAX FRANK controlled permanent formwork liner when concreting tunnel tubes enables an almost void-free, resistible concrete surface.

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.

Concrete structural elements that are curved and inclined on one side can be produced simply and rationally with Stremaform^® formwork elements.

Tracks for trams are subject to lower loads in comparison with railway tracks. Therefore strip foundations are generally adequate, even on sandy ground.
