Corefast lift/stair cores
Corefast is an innovative modular construction system that enables structural cores in multi-storey building to be created in Bi-Steel up to six times faster than reinforced concrete.
Bi-Steel is a Corus patented steel/concrete composite material developed for high performance applications that require strength and structural rigidity.
Bi-Steel panels are manufactured and fabricated into Corefast modules off-site, then transported to the project site where they are quickly and accurately assembled to form the core. Once in position, the panels are filled with concrete to create a robust structure with outstanding strength and stiffness.
Benefits
- Faster to build – up to six times faster to construct than an equivalent concrete core
- Highly flexible – each solution is designed to meet specific requirements
- Improved efficiency – due to better build sequence and reduced site congestion
- Enhanced site safety – no formwork required, resulting in fewer hours working at height
- Greater accuracy – improved interface with adjoining steelwork
- Increased capital values – slimmer walls can release additional lettable floor space
Suitable for cores from eight storeys to over 100 storeys, Corefast is a proven technology that is currently delivering benefits to all members of the construction project team in retail, commercial and residential schemes throughout the UK.
