9-story residential building reinforced with steel and DURUS® EasyFinish fiber reinforcement.

Frimærket, Herlev are 9-story residential buildings for contractor Jönsson Entreprise A/S and consulting engineer AFRY.

The slabs/slabs-on-ground are reinforced only with DURUS® EasyFinish macro synthetic fiber reinforcement. The point foundations - carrying up to more than 2000 kN - are reinforced with a composite/hybrid solution with both steel reinforcement/steel mesh and DURUS® EasyFinish macro synthetic fiber reinforcement. The addition of the fiber reinforcement drastically reduced the amount of steel reinforcement needed.

All verifications were performed in PPCD’s online calculation software:

  • greenSlab for the slab/slabs-on-ground calculations
  • greenPad for the point/pad foundation calculations
