In the construction sector, productivity is of utmost importance, fundamentally relying on working hours and how efficiently these hours are utilized. Whether for the construction of high-rise buildings or infrastructure projects, there is always a race against time.
Several factors influence productivity on a construction site (such as meteorological conditions, personnel, logistics, etc.), but vertical access, which can be a significant challenge, is efficiently addressed by ALFA.
Another crucial aspect alongside productivity is workplace safety and worker health. This increasingly significant concern is meticulously monitored by site management. ALFA products play a vital role in ensuring safety and health in the workplace.
ALFA's vertical access solutions for construction sites are preferred in various projects, including new high-rise and low-rise developments as well as renovation and maintenance projects.
UPPER STRUCTURE CONSTRUCTION
ALFA’s range of vertical access solutions for upper structure construction includes the ALFA 24 and ALFA 24.XX BM Series rack-and-pinion hoists, ALFA TP Series transport platforms, ALFA WP Series mast climbing work platforms and ALFA TCL Series tower crane elevators used on construction sites.
Additionally, ALFA’s flexible production capabilities are ready to create custom vertical transport solutions, enabling architects to realize artistic and technological field implementations.
TUNNEL AND METRO CONSTRUCTION
Metro and roadway tunnel constructions are becoming more common due to the increasing global population and advancing technology. In this fast-paced environment, projects must be completed quickly and efficiently.
To lower personnel and materials dozens of meters underground and, more importantly, to evacuate personnel in emergencies, ALFA 24 Series rack-and-pinion hoists are always ready. The ALFA 24 elevators do not require a special shaft or motor room for operation, making them suitable for transporting stretchers in emergencies. Furthermore, ALFA’s flexible production capabilities allow for the design of special elevators tailored to construction site conditions.
BRIDGE AND VIADUCT CONSTRUCTION
Bridges and viaducts provide passage over physical obstacles, shortening travel time while enhancing safety and comfort. They can take many forms, such as girder, movable, or cable-stayed bridges. Like other large structures, bridges require maintenance for durability over time, and the need for vertical access during construction is essential.
Maintenance challenges increase for large suspension bridges, where tower heights can exceed 100 meters. The ALFA 24 Series provides vertical access for personnel during the construction of bridges and viaducts. For maintenance, elevators designed specifically the ALFA IE Series are developed to ensure long-term operation.
