March 2022<\/em>: While the world moves towards increasing innovation, there is a keen focus across industries on \u2018new\u2019 products, \u2018new\u2019 processes and \u2018new\u2019 solutions to invest in. But innovation in the construction industry doesn\u2019t necessarily need to follow unfamiliar \u2013 and sometimes risky and costly \u2013 routes. Peikko South Africa is changing up the local construction industry with a modern take on traditional construction methods.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile it is true that Peikko has become known for innovative and \u2018new\u2019 precast construction methods, this doesn\u2019t mean we\u2019ve stopped thinking critically about existing methods which are tried, tested, and well-loved by the industry. Our goal is to make construction faster, safer and more efficient \u2013 whatever the chosen method is,\u201d explains Daniel Petrov, MD of Peikko South Africa. \u201cWe have renewed our focus on cast-in-situ connections, which are guaranteed to be reliable, high quality, and saves time on site.\u201d<\/p>\n

While precast construction means much of a project is prefabricated off-site, cast-in-situ requires concrete casting to happen on site. This means a multitude of products need to be inserted accurately and efficiently into the formwork, before the concrete is poured. \u201cThis can be a lengthy process and has dire consequences if not done right \u2013 greatly impacting your bottom line,\u201d explains Petrov.<\/p>\n

Peikko boasts a range of cast-in-situ solutions \u2013 typically for foundations, slabs, walls, \u00a0\u00a0columns, etc. These products are designed to make construction easier. For example, for anchoring, Peikko offers HPM\u00ae rebar anchor bolts, PPM\u00ae high-strength rebar anchor bolts, and their flagship COPRA\u00ae anchoring couplers. To ensure these products are placed with the high-precision needed for top-quality results, Peikko created an installation template which can be used with any of the three solutions. \u201cThis is just one example of how we are taking a fresh look at traditional construction methods,\u201d explains Petrov.<\/p>\n

The product range extends to every requirement of your cast-in-situ project, adding renewed strength and robustness to tried and tested casting processes. For punching shear reinforcement, for example, Peikko has introduced a unique combination of horizonal and vertical studs (known as PSB\u00ae and PSB PLUS\u00ae systems) that increases capacity against punching shear failure of a reinforced concrete slab \u2013 with cost efficiency in mind.<\/p>\n

Beyond products, Peikko also offers superior support. Products are delivered to site on time, with clear communication throughout the sales process. After-sales support means that you get technical advice and design guidance any time, allowing you to tap into decades of construction experience from Peikko.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are many strengths to Peikko\u2019s cast-in-situ solutions, but the core benefit for the customer is availability, efficiency and reliability. On-site casting takes more labour and time, but with Peikko, projects stay on schedule,\u201d concludes Petrov.<\/p>\n
