RENOVATION WITH ULTRA HIGH PERFORMANCE CONCRETE

Are you facing a major property renovation or does your housing association dream of adding spacious and modern balconies to the apartments? At Hi-Con, we have a long tradition of renovating and helping our customers tackle the challenges that typically arise during the renovation process.

 

During renovation, you often encounter the same challenges. One of the most challenging tasks is often the weight of the balconies, as it is crucial to determine whether it is possible to add a balcony without overloading the existing structure and whether the balconies can be securely attached. Additionally, the design of the balconies can be a challenge, as they often need to match the building's original and possibly preservation-worthy architecture. Finally, there is always a building code that must be adhered to during the renovation project, where the requirements for live load can be crucial.

At Hi-Con, we specialize in handling these challenges, and our material, Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC) CRC, is particularly well-suited for renovation projects. Our material has a wide range of essential properties that you can benefit from in your renovation project. Read more about our material and its advantages further down the page.

 

We understand the importance of complying with regulatory requirements for local planning and urban development, and our team of specialists is always ready to help you fulfill your renovation dreams in an efficient and professional manner. So don't hesitate to contact us for a non-binding conversation or explore our selected renovation projects to see what we have achieved for our customers.

SURFACES - TEXTURE AND COLORS

Ultra High Performance Concrete can, like regular concrete, be tailored to the aesthetic expression you desire. The standard colors are gray and light, but it is also possible to dye and texture the concrete. Additionally, the aggregate can be varied so that the surface appears rougher than the standard concrete.
