Slipforming special jobs like bicycle paths, traffic barriers or kerbs.

Instead of placing pre-fabricated concrete parts in a manual operation, the required profiles can also be produced by slipform pavers in offset application. What applications can offset concrete paving be used for? What are the advantages of slipform paving when compared to manual construction?

Kerbs, barriers in the central reservation of motorways, gutters for water drainage – moulded concrete parts are available in many different shapes. It is, however, much easier and more economically efficient to produce such profiles using the slipform paving technology. Slipform pavers typically produce these so-called monolithic profiles in offset application.

A broad variety of special jobs

Offset paving offers a tremendous variety of profile shapes and sizes, as the paving mould is mounted on the side of the paver and can have nearly any given contour. Standardized moulds are available for commonly used shapes like the New Jersey profile used for traffic barriers on motorways. For all other profiles, the moulds are customized to the application in question.

Economically efficient method

Offset applications range from road boundaries and safety barriers with a maximum height of 2 m to artificial runoffs or narrow paths. Offset paving using slipform pavers is an extremely fast and efficient method when compared to manual construction with pre-fabricated concrete parts.
