Building steel composite bridges faster and with higher quality concrete carriageway slabs is possible with PERI’s new VCT Composite Track.

The system is already being used in Croatia and for construction of the new Thulba viaduct in Germany. Visitors will see a replica of the impressive project in the PERI exhibition hall. The composite track has also been named as a finalist for the bauma innovation award in the construction sector.

PERI subsidiary Vemaventuri says that sensor solutions can positively influence the construction process. Sensors are used to facilitate decision-making on the construction site and save resources.

Sensors can communicate the pressure exerted on the formwork during concreting as well as temperatures for determining the degree of concrete maturity to determining the water content in fresh concrete. Vemaventuri’s numerous types of sensors when combined with PERI systems offers added value.
