Precast Circular Concrete Basin - PIJAK System

This building system of precast concrete circular basins represents protected (patented) industrial property. The precast units are always of 6,28 m modular length & 1,2 m height. The lift joints are mainly horizontal and not vertical. Sealing of horiontálnych joints is much more simple than that of the vertical ones. Therefore this system of precast concrete basins is of higher quality compared to other precast systems.

The advantage of this building system lies also in the fact the basin is of perfect circular shape and not polygonal like with other precast systems of circular concrete basins. However the major advantage of the system is to be able to achieve the lowest possible price of quality circular concrete basin. Its steel form is portable and as a result one can expect manufacture of required precast units in the nearest prefa plant, or in the most convenient one so as to reduce transportation costs.

Building companies will be trained as required to ensure proper erection. Another advantage is less time needed to carry out on-site erection compared to implementation of monolitic basin. Armoured slab is always made as monolitic, and sized according to particular foundation conditions. Its thickness therefore differs and moves normally from 300 mm to 500 mm. To carry out erection sufficient space has to be secured round the basin for crane truck and vehicle bringing the panels.

Typically the precasts for 2 height modules are manufactured as type ones.

The first basins of this system with 6, 8 & 12m diameters have been implemented at year end 2003.
