New Nanodur concrete with high modulus of elasticity
The strength of concrete is important; often, however, the verification of deflections and minimum rigidities are decisive factors for the design. A high and above all reliable modulus of elasticity of the concrete used is crucial for example for columns of high-rise buildings, steps of grandstands, and machine bases.
In the course of their activities in machine engineering, Dyckerhoff GmbH came across synthetically produced, marketable aggregates which can purposefully influence the modulus of elasticity of concrete. In combination with the binder Nanodur compound, Dyckerhoff GmbH has...
