Slipforming
Slipform construction provides the customer with a cost-efficient, proven, and reliable construction process that offers critical advantages regarding time schedules, space requirements and flexibility of structural shapes. Slipforming is the preferred technology for tall, time-sensitive and monolithic concrete structures.
Slipform System
We use our own slipform systems and equipment allows us to slipform different shapes of structure like:
- Rectangular slipform system used for building cores, staircase towers, fire-resistant concrete walls ,
- Cylindrical slipform system used for silos, water tanks, LNG tanks, chimneys, etc
- Conical sets of slipform systems that can be used for more complicated shapes of structures like bottle shaped core for wind farms structure, conical chimney or singular
Each system include:
- Steel formwork plates that allows us to obtain the best quality of the surface system
- New hydraulic system that allows us to perform high speed work execution
- High safety protection system that ensure the work performance is safe and any possibility of falling objects is reduced to minimum.
- Individual accessories that are determined by the project like: additional rebar platform, winch tower that allows to perform works without usage of crane and concrete pump, inner boxes for designed openings and extension of the lower platform when construction require resizing of the wall.
Concrete is poured continuously, 24/7 if necessary, into a single form that is steadily elevated to create the designed form. This technology features low manpower needs, safe execution and small tolerances monitored by lasers, and reduces construction time and costs. These monolithic structures are free from joints, and each structure is designed and built according to our customer’s unique requirements.
We deliver fully integrated solutions for engineering, design, construction, inspection, and maintenance services.
