The next webinar is scheduled for 23 September at 10h00 and will be hosted by Peikko product experts Stefan Gavura and Daniel Petrov. It will discuss the company’s slim floor solution as well as Peikko punching shear prevention systems – PSB and PSB Plus for cast in-situ concrete floors on site applications.
Attendees with learn about the benefits and features of using the slim floor solution, including increased cubic efficiency, optimised structure, decreased environmental footprint and enhanced sustainability. This will give context to the use of company’s punching shear prevention systems, which are used in conjunction with slim floors for improved structural integrity of multi-story structures.
PSB punching reinforcement is applicable to various kinds of structural systems and installation situations. Being fully integrated in the concrete elements, it is an ideal reinforcement system for monolithic slim structures or flat concrete structures in general, which can be used as punching reinforcement or shear reinforcement.
Developers, consultants and contractors are encouraged to register for the event to learn how new construction methods will add value for clients, saving time and money.
