With structural sealant glazing, glass panes are bonded to frame profiles at the factory (primarily using silicone adhesive and with a linear adhesive bead). This prefabricated structural sealant glaz

Masonry is made from masonry units using mortar or other bonding agents or not. Different techniques are used to produce masonry for different application areas. In many cases, the masonry units for t

Insulation products under load-bearing elements (outside the waterproofing) must not only have special thermal insulation properties, but also meet structural requirements. Frequently used products in

Wood-based panels for use in construction include OSB, particleboards, cement-bonded particleboards, fibre boards, plywood, laminated veneer lumber and solid wood panels. A special form of solid timbe

Thermoplastic moulding compounds are used in a variety of ways to manufacture semi-finished products and construction products. They are used, for example, in the manufacture of bulk silos, cesspits a

Liquid-tight collecting trays and devices are enclosures serving to meet the requirement for secondary containment under water law. They are used to collect and retain substances hazardous to water le

Plastic pipes are especially suitable for conveying certain liquids hazardous to water because they often have a more favourable corrosion behaviour than metal products and hence are resistant to vari

Prestressing steel bars are used in various prestressing systems for concrete structures. Prestressing steel bars are manufactured in hot rolling mills (by quenching, cold-drawing or additional temper

Composite insulation elements are prefabricated insulation elements which are mechanically fixed directly to the load-bearing wall as external wall cladding. A composite insulation element consists of

For these wall construction techniques, precast concrete elements fitted with reinforcement are filled with in situ concrete. For applications comprising precast elements, lattice girders may be used

Joint sealing tape is used to seal joints between windows and facades or facade joints for protection against wind and driving rain. It is usually compressible to compensate for temperature-induced fa

With their very low thermal conductivities, insulation products play an important role in thermal insulation and in improving the energy performance of buildings. A multitude of different materials ar

Ancillary components and accessories comprise all construction products which, in addition to masonry units and mortar, are needed for the erection of masonry structures. These construction products a

Rebar couplings are mechanical splices (mechanical connections) joining two reinforcing bars for transmitting tensile and compressive forces. They are used to connect the reinforcement in the area of

Bulk silos made of plastics – glass fibre-reinforced polyester resin (UP-GF) or polyethylene (PE) – are vertical cylindrical containers with funnel-shaped bottom outlets. They are used, e.g., for stor

Concrete constituents

Working scaffolds in accordance with DIN EN 12811‑1 serve as auxiliary equipment for reaching parts of the structure that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to access in order to perform work

Modular scaffolds are scaffolds in which standards, ledgers and diagonal braces are connected through special connections made of multiple components, called module nodes. Working scaffolds in accorda

Prestressing steel wire is used for prestressing concrete structures. Prestressing steel wire is made of wire rod which is either manufactured by cold-forming and subjected to a finishing thermo-mecha

Trenchless rehabilitation techniques are increasingly being applied in wastewater engineering today. For the rehabilitation of underground supply pipes and drainage pipes, techniques such as lining wi

An anchor channel is a fastening system that consists of a channel profile with permanently attached anchors and channel bolts. The channel profile with the anchors is fastened to the formwork prior t

Structural bearings are components that allow for relative rotation of parts of structural works, transfer loads and permit or prevent displacements in one or more directions. The most common bearing

Intumescent products are fire-stopping and fire-sealing products which foam up or expands permanently when exposed to high temperatures which creates a fire-sealing effect. The expanded product seals

Smooth and profiled metal components are frequently used to execute roof or wall claddings. Alongside the classic trapezoidal sheet, individual solutions are also frequent. Metal products and construc

Corrosion protection systems are applied to the surfaces of metallic materials of low corrosion resistance. The primary goal is to extend the fields of use of such materials to more corrosive environm
