Elephant Park
London, United Kingdom
1 day faster per cycle with Concremote
Elephant Park is part of the Elephant and Castle redevelopment project in London and is expected to be completed by 2025. It will create 3000 new homes as well as retail and office space. The project aims to be climate positive or carbon negative by 2025.
Our customer A J Morrisroe & Sons Ltd was facing challenges in terms of the concrete finish such as colour matching the different elements, different stripping times and different concrete mixes. Due to their good experience with Doka products over the years and our desire to push and further develop digital solutions for our customers they went with Concremote to overcome these issues.
The live data provided by Concremote helped massively with the forecast, which allowed to better plan their resources and overall have a better outcome on the project.
The data of the performance of the used concrete mixes allows to develop future mixes for future projects and thus help with cost savings, time savings and efficiency to push performance on site.
Challenges
- Size of the project
- Many different concrete mixes
- Varying weather conditions
Customer requirements
- Keep cycle times in different weather conditions
- Meet deadlines due to the size of the project
Concremote solution
- Slab sensors for slabs
- Cable sensors with wall sensing elements for verticals to determine optimum stripping times
- Mix comparison with multiple live projects
