Greece is the word
September 1st 2008 Concrete Grinding has completed
its first contract in Greece for a new
build project in Athens.
Working together with Eurolit,
CG performed 3 wheel track Laser
Grinding to 46 narrow aisles
totalling over 4800m of VNA –
equivalent to over 3 miles of aisle
way.
Due to timing restrictions, the
decision was made to lay the floor
using a laser screed in large jointless
panels. A floor built using the
laser screed technology allows for
up to 2,000m2 to be constructed
in a single day. As each large
section of the floor was completed
and handed over, other contractors
could start their work while the
remainder of the floor was being
constructed.
According to the project's
schedule, once the floor was laid,
the centreline of each proposed
aisle was marked on the
floor then surveyed to
check for compliance to
the DIN 15185
specification. Any areas
of the floor surveyed that
were not compliant with
the specification were
identified and corrected
by remedial laser
grinding.
This approach,
combined with the skill of
the flooring contractor,
allowed for only the noncompliant
areas of floor to be
ground, thus increasing speed,
efficiency and eliminating the time
wasted grinding the entire length of
each aisle. Subsequently, the cost
for laser grinding was also
reduced. More articles from Concrete Grinding Ltd: |
