Durable and versatile formwork facing for the Muess Tunnel
All-plastic alkus formwork facing – containing no wood whatsoever – has earned itself a good reputation thanks to its durability and the good concrete surfaces achieved. The engineering benefits of this system are now also becoming increasingly appreciated, however. Since it can be preshaped virtually at will, it also assures good concrete surfaces for curved and sloping elements. This formwork facing system is, what is more, increasingly coming into use in tunnel and drain/sewer engineering. In this field, it frequently takes the form of the up to now only little known 6 mm thick GM 6...
