  • Product description

Linear elements with solid or hollow cross-sections (thin-walled hollow piers made using polystyrene or interior moulds) for supporting all kinds of structures, bridge decks, etc.

Single shaft under the support.

Piers connected at the head with lintels.

Piers with integrated head for double support (such as "palm tree piers")

  • Main characteristics
  • Use of sections of any shape (circular, rectangular, octagonal, etc.) in the shaft.
  • Circular sections measuring from 0.60 to 1.50 m in diameter and thin-walled rectangular ones of up to 4.00 m per side.
  • Section head can vary to adapt to the width of the precast beam (box girder or U-beam), up to 4.00 m. (cajón o artesa), hasta 4.00m.
  • Achieving piers of up to 40 m by connecting two sections with lightweight rectangular components.
  • Simple and effective connection to the foundations (footings, pile caps, etc)
  • Primary applications
  • In decks with a single beam (continuous span bridges) of up to 12.5 m wide and spans of less than 40 m, with isostatic and statically indeterminate set-ups.
  • In precast beam decks of any width by arranging lintels.
  • In U-beam decks with a single shaft for each beam.
  • Special piles for heavy loads in building construction.
  • Construction details

A hollow thin-walled pier made with polystyrene or using interior moulds.

Connected to the foundations through the use of metal foundation sheathing, or post-tensioned, at great heights.

The lintel is connected to the pier with projecting reinforcement and sheathing.

Shaft sections connected using the same system (heights > 30 m).

The aesthetic appeal of the flat roof can be accentuated by adding special border features.

  • Advantages
  • Piers quickly assembled on-site.
  • Simplification of formwork (moulds).
  • Connection to the foundations simple to perform.
