Structural Elements

 

Ductal ® est le meilleur matériau pour la fabrication d'éléments structurels innovants.

 

These elements include a range of possibilities, including: columns, beams, shells (roof systems), panels, wall panels and louvers or sunshades. It is an ultra-high performance, composite material that provides strength, ductility, durability and aesthetics. This unique combination of superior properties facilitates the ability to create innovative designs with new shapes that are thinner, lighter and more graceful.

 

Ductal® is significantly stronger and denser than conventional concrete and provides superior resistance to abrasion, chemical resistance, freeze-thaw, carbonation and chloride ion penetration. Its "denseness", along with nanometer sized non-connected pores throughout its cementitious matrix, attributes to its remarkable imperviousness and durability against adverse conditions or aggressive agents.

 

Advantages include:

 

  • Superior strength
  • Ductility
  • Freeze/thaw resistance
  • Design flexibility
  • Longer spans shallow
  • Thin lightweight structures
  • Reductions in foundations
  • Faster construction
  • Reduce or eliminate passive reinforcing
  • Increased usage life
  • Improved seismic performance
  • Impact resistance
  • Abrasion resistance
  • Dimensional stability
  • Dower permeability
  • Low chloride ion diffusion
  • Reduced maintenance
