hiDCon® beam elements
Yielding shotcrete shell with high load-bearing capacity
The most important properties of hiDCon elements
- High deformation capacity with almost constant load resistance
- Increasing load capacity at the end of deformation capacity
- Variability of shape and dimension
- Control of load-bearing and deformation propertiesn
- Use of approved base materials
- Insignificant creep with constant long-term loading
