With an approximate production capacity of 1,100 tons per day, the aim of this new plant is to produce 40% of the company´s cement, as well as to supply the domestic demand and exports for the USA and Europe.
Aside from the difficulties of a construction project of this type (2,700 tons of steel, 30,000 m2 of formwork and 20,000 m3 of concrete), it was necessary to add new challenges, such as the complexity of the structures, the orography, and the short execution times.
The vertical structure of one of the industrial buildings exceeded 110 meters in height, for which T-60 shoring towers were used. These are designed for considerable height applications, as well as for large slabs shoring. The slabs were executed with BTM beam formwork.
