Soil mixing techniques serve to create unreinforced structural elements (single elements or bodies of soil made of single elements) through grouting of the soil with a binder suspension on site. With

Vibro stone columns are unreinforced pile-like structural elements. They belong to the group of displacement piles and can be used as load-bearing or foundation elements for transferring loads from st

Composite columns consist of a combination of steel sections and concrete or reinforced concrete. The steel sections are completely or partially embedded in concrete. Composite columns have much highe

A composite beam consists of a combination of a steal beam andconcrete or reinforced concrete connected in a shear-resistant manner so that they act together as a single structural member. Composite b

Pipes for the conveyance of liquids hazardous to water are executed with special inner coatings or linings to make them liquid-tight. Inner coatings and linings for pipes and tanks for liquids hazardo

Cesspits are liquid-tight tanks, usually installed underground, for waste water containing faecal matter (sewage). Given that cesspits are not connected to the sewer system, professional emptying and

Limit switches are safety devices within the meaning of water legislation, installed in tank vehicles and acting together with overfill prevention devices to interrupt the filling operation before the

Leak detection linings serve to create a second skin within the meaning of water legislation in single-skin tanks or containers. For this purpose, an internal lining is inserted into a single-skin tan

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

Reaction resins (vinyl ester resin, epoxy resin, polyester resin) in their cured condition are thermosets and are used in construction products in a large variety of ways. Laminates made of these resi
