Doka Xpress CEU 02/2019

An Eye-catching Station

By 2020, the new station at Kapfenberg will be an architecturally appealing and well thought-out railway station, in which fair-faced concrete will play an important role as a design element.

The central access building to the south is designed to be a light-flooded room in elliptical shape. The counterpart to the large glass surfaces is formed by rounded walls of fair-faced concrete, which are being constructed with the help of Doka formwork using high-quality, fair-faced concrete. For this, Doka’s framed formwork will be fitted with Top 50panels, which will be delivered to the site pre-assembled by the ready-to-use service. The walls with different radii and a height between 3 and 5.50 m are cast in one pour. The northern entrance to the underpass will captivate any visitor with its open-plan design. The roof of the component rests on props. The curved underside of the ceiling must be finished with decorative, fair-faced concrete. You can see the railway tracks through a large elliptical window in the wall. This “eye” has a dimension of up to 18 x 5 m and has partly double curved surfaces. This complex component is also produced with self-compacting concrete (SCC) in fair-faced concrete quality. The phenolic resin film-coated Dokaplex multi-layer board is used for a smooth surface. It won’t be long before the numerous visitors to Kapfenberg station will be admiring the high-quality concrete surfaces achieved with it.

Apostrophe

The quality of Doka’s special formwork will win anyone over and, in addition to correct handling, helps to achieve the desired high quality of fair-faced concrete.

The challenge

Exceptional architecture and the highest attention to the surface quality of the fair-faced concrete, since the viewing distances are sometimes less than 1 m.

The Doka solution

Doka supplies pre-assembled, custom-fit formwork boxes that are lined with Dokaplex formwork panels for a high-quality, smooth concrete surface.
