EMAS Project Scope 1 for Petronas
Malacca City, Malaysia
Reduction of stripping time by 42 % due to real-time monitoring
HRSB Infrabina Sdn Bhd undertook the construction of storage silo tanks consisting of several large tanks with three castings each. The primary objectives were to prevent thermal cracks and optimise the formwork cycle while ensuring the highest standards of concrete quality. The real-time monitoring with #Concremote enabled our customer to find the perfect time for stripping based on reliable records and thus save 42 % in stripping time.
Challenges:
- Avoidance of thermal cracks in the water tanks
- Optimise formwork use on the project
Customer requirements:
- Ensure compliance with the project quality specifications
- Reduced cycle time
Concremote solution:
- Calibration of the concrete mix
- Cable sensors for measuring compressive strength development
- Cables inside tanks to monitor temperature and strength
Time savings
Time to target strength value reduced by 42% (4 days instead of 7 days)
