At the end of 2021, the Finnish company Peikko implemented a pilot project in which a load-bearing frame of concrete elements and slim-floor beams was assembled, disassembled and reassembled. The main purpose of the project was to prove that the connection technology between load-bearing structures unlocks the reuse potential of precast concrete elements.

Introduction

At the end of 2021, the Finnish company Peikko implemented a pilot project in which a load-bearing frame of concrete elements and slim-floor beams was assembled, disassembled and reassembled. Precast manufacturer, Consolis Parma and Finnish training and research organization, TTS were also involved in the project which was carried out in Vantaa, Finland. The main purpose of the project was to prove that the connection technology between load-bearing structures unlocks the reuse potential of precast concrete elements.

In 2022, construction of a residential building consisting of...
