These supports which have been used for more than 20 years by the most important construction companies in different sectors (construction, road-building, pipelines, marine oil pipelines, flooring, etc.) have numerous advantages :LIGHT WEIGHT, which facilitates:
• storage in containers that can be easily handled by a single operator even when containingnotable quantities (100-200 pieces)
• transportation using even modest equipment
• manageability and the reduction of assembly operations.
STRUCTURE: specifically designed to support heavy vertical loads it has holes so that the cement can flow inside and form a single body without leaving cavities.
SHAPE: designed to adapt to any size of metal net (type A); in fact even just the crossing of the net can also be usedto position the piece (special system for flooring).
MODULARITY: the particular shape makes it possible to stack (type A) the spacers Thanks to a special joint construction that permits stacking, multiple structures can be achieved even with different spaces between the various layers of net, creating structures of reinforced concrete with differentiated resistance, type “sandwich”.
VERSATILITY: which thanks to a side hole facilitates fastening lengths of pipes by means of any type of rope or steel wire and, with the numerous side and top openings, ensure complete enveloping in reinforced concrete thus maintaining the structure intact and without weakening it.
CHEAPNESS and QUALITY OF THE FINISHED CONSTRUCTION: the saving obtained compared to the production of spacers made of concrete, wood or iron should not be overlooked. In any case, the finished construction must provide guarantees of total compactness without dangerous cavities or possible fracture lines; in addition the guarantee of a “definite” position of the layer of metal net, as requested by the engineer, ensures constructors, users, as well as the test personnel even more the possibility of undesired disputes regarding quality, aesthetics and resistance of the flooring will not arise.
