Free-standing formwork AMLOCOR®

steelfoundation

ArcelorMittal’s new ‘low corrosion’ steel grade AMLoCor® will revolutionise the design of port constructions as the durability of marine structures is of major concern to designers and port authorities. significant reduction of corrosion rate in low water and permanent immersion zones proven performance by numerous in situ tests considerable weight & cost savings The mechanical properties of the micro-alloyed AMLoCor® grades are fully equivalent to normal piling grades so that design structural resistances can be determined according to all relevant design codes used for steel sheet piling structures such as EN 1993-5:2007. However, the design approach has to be adapted to take into account the loss of steel thickness.
