CONSOLIS

Combining high performance with sustainability CONSOLIS is constantly seeking to enhance the strength, ductility and environmental sustainability of its concrete solutions - our R&D programmes are intrinsically linked to our sustainability initiatives.

Making Concrete More Sustainably Using precast concrete already helps to reduce energy and raw material consumption during construction, but the key to making concrete a greener material is reducing the CO 2 emissions generated to produce it. CONSOLIS does this by using local and recycled aggregates, which lowers both emissions related to the transport of materials and the manufacture of the concrete

itself. Where possible, Consolis' subsidiaries use the most environmentally-friendly transportation method including road, rail and waterways. In our production processes a maximum proportion of waste is recovered and re-used, which applies to fresh concrete residue as well as hardened concrete.

CONSOLIS has launched several energy-saving initiatives on its manufacturing sites. The Group's Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) site at Lunel, in the south of France has been equipped with photovoltaic solar panels on the roof since 2012, giving rise to an annual production of 260 MW of energy (equivalent to the yearly consumption of electricity of 104 households) and a reduction of 23 tonnes of CO2. 

Energy-efficient Construction Elements High Performance with Less Concrete CONSOLIS dedicates a lot of research into enhancing the thermal mass and acoustic performance of concrete. CONSOLIS's Building activity teams collaborate on multiple projects involving BREEAM rating or LEED accreditation such as the Pyramid project in Sweden, a modern office complex for which Strangbetong, CONSOLIS' Swedish subsidiary has been commissioned to design, manufacture and assembly the concrete framework. With a reduced impact on the environment during the construction phase and operating as an environmentally sensitive building during its lifetime with a high environmental profile, the Pyramid offices will hold the second highest BREEAM ranking - Excellent.

The longitudinal voids in our prestressed hollowcore slabs mean that 50% less concrete is needed to manufacture these types of slab, compared to a traditional one. In addition, the low weight of a hollowcore floor enables us to reduce the amount of pre-stressing steel used by 30%. Less concrete means less CO2 emissions and a leaner design.

Depolluting Concrete CONSOLIS R&D teams are currently studying various forms of nano technologies to assess their capacity for absorbing mono-nitrogen oxides from the atmosphere. This research is a closer step towards the integration of these specific technologies into concrete products used in infrastructure and building construction, to absorb atmospheric pollution.

Pushing concrete's potential Thanks to its experience and technical mastery of concrete and its different properties, CONSOLIS is able to develop materials and products that are adapted to specific structural and architectural constraints. Selecting the right concrete for the right structure leads to greater efficiency in construction, energy use and cost. Glass Fibre Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) and Ultra-High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) are two examples of high-performance materials CONSOLIS

makes wide use of. Both materials are lighter and stronger than traditional concrete, offering greater flexibility in construction.  Bonna Sabla, a CONSOLIS subsidiary, took advantage of UHPFRC’s unique properties when commissioned to produce products such as voussoirs, cantilever beams and latticework panels for Marseille’s striking and flamboyant MuCEM museum. 

Customer Partnerships Through Production Site Labs Our teams take their research closer to our markets by developing solutions in partnership with customers in the countries where we operate. Our production site labs go far beyond routine quality control: they provide expertise in developing complex engineered concrete products. Moreover, they can complete prototyping case studies based on the appropriate qualification tests on request. Our technical expertise is crucial to the success of technically complex and ambitious projects.

CONSOLIS

researCh anD innovation is Innovation at CONSOLIS is firmly grounded in its long tradition of research, which stretches back a century. Today's multilevel R&D programme is based on a model of open innovation, a concept whereby both internal and external ideas as well as paths to market are explored to ensure the advance of technology and innovation in the industry. Our R&D team comprises architects, engineers, industrial designers and multidisciplinary researchers from five different countries. Not only do we work to continually develop innovative materials and construction elements, but we also focus our efforts on project management, process improvement and collaborative partnerships with key industry bodies.

BIM – A Cornerstone in the Design-Build-Operate Process CONSOLIS has been using BIM (Building Information Modelling) and VDC (Virtual Design and Construction) since 2006. These leading technologies help us review and refine constructability issues early on in the design process. In addition to providing a clear vision of a building's behaviour for operation and maintenance plans, BIM and VDC are also key for sustainable design,

offering feedback on environmental characteristics such as material properties, energy per formance and site disturbance. Following on from our current use of BIM 4D on many projects, our objective is to use BIM 5D for 50% of our projects by 2018, offering optimized design, planning and construction costs and calculation of the Total Cost of Ownership for our clients.

BIM: A Cornerstone in the Design-Build-Operate Process ESTIMATION 5D

DESIGN 3D • Existing conditions models • Safety & logistics models • Animations, renderings, walkthroughs • BIM driven prefabrication • Laser accurate BIM driven field layout

SCHEDULING 4D • Project phasing simulations • Lean scheduling • Visual validation for payment approval

• Real time conceptual modelling & cost planning • Quantify extraction to support detailed cost estimates • Trade verifications from fabrication models • Value engineering • Prefabrication solutions

SUSTAINABILITY 6D • Conceptual energy analysis • Detailed energy analysis • Sustainable element tracking • Environmental Assessment System tracking

FACILITY MANAGEMENT 7D • Life cycle BIM strategies • BIM as-builts • BIM embedded O&M manuals • COBie data population & extraction • BIM maintenance plans & tech support • BIM file hosting

in our Dna Using Digital Technology in Construction As Consolis is convinced that the future of construction will involve digital technology on all levels, from design to materials used and processes, the Group has specific R&D programmes on digital technology. Consolis is thus able to: • Address the increasing demand for sophisticated designs • Set world-class standards for manufacturing operations and tighten dimension tolerances • Contribute to improving on-site work with less manual intervention • Develop digital features, connected objects and structural monitoring to better manage product lifecycle.

SMART CONCRETE For certain solutions, Consolis' uses smart concrete, where the material itself contains micro¬chips that allow it to communicate a wide range of information once installed. The chips can provide data such as the composition of the material used, date and time of a specific manufacturing process and quality checks, installation procedures, reference numbers for wear parts such as joints and seals, and data on pre-installation quality checks. The data is available for the lifecycle of the product whether it be a bridge, tunnel or building, and is useful in the case of renovation, destruction or concrete recycling.

more effiCient, flexible, Cost-effeCtive solutions Today's construction industry requires innovative materials that are strong, flexible and cost-effective. CONSOLIS precast solutions, such as hollowcore slabs and ready-made sandwich walls, speed up construction and ensure quality results. Pipe floors, integrated hollowcore slabs and walls allow space for pipes and conduits for increased building flexibility and adaptability.

Building Homes Boosting Faster Energy Efficiency CONSOLIS's precast and prestressed concrete is widely used in low-, mid- and high-rise apartment buildings.  Our prefabricated elements, such as hollowcore slabs and ready-made sandwich walls, allow a significant decrease in construction time. Developers and owners know that these two precast elements are a winning combination for finishing projects fast while respecting quality, and generating income earlier with a reduction in overall cost. CONSOLIS’ prestressed hollowcore floors provide maximum flexibility because unit depth, capacity and surface finish are adapted to each and every project.

The benefits of using TermoDeck® hollowcore slabs in residential construction are low operating and maintenance costs, and outstanding thermal comfort. The building consumes very little energy thanks to efficient insulation, and low infiltration rates through a heating, ventilation and cooling system integrated into the concrete flooring. Air passes through the TermoDeck® system, which allows the room temperature in each apartment to be maintained between 20°C and 23°C. Air can be heated by a geothermal heat pump and additional heating methods can be used as back up during cold periods.

Smart Building Systems Bashallen® is a cost-effective, building solution for the construction of nonresidential buildings such as warehouses, showrooms or logistics hubs. The complete building system offers design flexibility and is quick and easy to set up. The precast concrete elements are manufactured in a quality-controlled factory environment, enabling a shorter construction time, independent of weather conditions. Design to assembly can be completed in one to two months. The EcoShaft™ is a precast concrete lift shaft for residential and commercial buildings. Its fast production and easy installation (no scaffolding required) make it a flexible, cost-effective solution. Made-to-measure with a tolerance of +/- 2mm the EcoShaft™ is compatible with all major lift brands.

Gateway to Creativity Ultra-High Performance Fiber-Reinforced Concrete The breathtaking concrete latticework created for the MuCEM (Marseilles, France) and the Jean Bouin Stadium (Paris, France) demonstrate UHPFRC's adaptability and strength. This exceptionally strong material was used for the construction of several nine-meter high “N” and “Y” shaped supporting columns, as well as a 78-meter footbridge for the MuCEM. The building also has canopies, awnings and other architectural features requiring strong and accurate elements.

LEADING THE WAY

#1 European concrete sleepers and bearers manufacturer Being an industry leader is not just about sales volume. It is a commitment to meeting our customers' needs one hundred percent while constantly putting quality, reliability and safety first. We are dedicated to understanding the constraints and challenges of our customers’ railway infrastructure projects in order to offer the appropriate solutions to: • Increase reliability and quality • Reduce set-up time • Limit noise pollution • Decrease maintenance costs Thanks to our strong focus on R&D, we’re always refining the design and manufacture of our products to ensure the highest quality while optimizing maintenance costs for the railway track.

Market-leading Expertise in Railway Tracks With a strong presence in Europe and more than 80 years' experience, CONSOLIS’ expertise in manufacturing concrete sleepers and bearers is unmatched in the European market. We serve all markets segments, with ballasted or ballastless solutions – high-speed rail, main lines, urban networks and heavy haul – and are able to work with all types of fastenings, gauges, and existing standards.

Thanks to our broad experience, we are able to rapidly develop solutions that fit our customers' requirements perfectly. Our expertise enables us to anticipate market needs and offer innovative adapted solutions.

Lowering Costs for Railway Operators L ifecycle costs are always on our mind, from the start of the design phase right through to RAMS (Reliability, Availability, Maintainability, Safety) analysis. Easier maintenance • The rail/sleeper interface is the same on slab-track and on ballast sleepers, therefore rails and fasteners can be replaced easily. • The design of our slab track system enables easy replacement of the sleepers. • Our Harmelen level crossing solution eliminates the maintenance that is required in traditional level crossing systems. Longer product lifecycle In minimizing the friction between ballast and sleepers, our under sleeper pad solutions help in reducing maintenance needs from 20 to 30%.
