​Numerous types of reinforced concrete floor and wall construction systems (such as cast in-situ, precast and tilt-up) have evolved to satisfy various aesthetic, structural, service, and environmental building conditions. Selecting the most effective solution to a building expense for a given set of constraints is therefore vital to achieving overall economy.

This manual introduces Plastbau Arabia Company Limited (PAL for short) and its flag products, namely Plastbau eDeck and Plastbau eWall that are manufactured based on Plastbau ICF (Insulating Concrete formwork) concept according to patented Plastbau Technology to provide for construction methods that bring a great deal of flexibility and performance to a wide variety of cast in-situ concrete construction situations.
The Plastbau concept addresses the major concerns of cast in-situ reinforced concrete construction by rationalizing three basic areas of its primary expenses, namely: concrete, reinforcement and formwork. Of these three expenses, striving for formwork economy throughout the planning, design, and construction stages has the greatest influence on reducing the overall costs of the building, which in general is rarely achieved by reducing material quantities alone. Moreover, both Plastbau eDeck and Plastbau eWall products are manufactured under factory conditions to the appropriate lengths and dimensions determined according to the same standards governing structural design of cast in-situ reinforced concrete members.
Within the manual you will find an overview of the general and specific information that makes Plastbau eDeck and Plastbau eWall the preferred products; from their governing ideals of ensuring a better way to build… to achieving overall economy, structural efficiency, aesthetic flexibility, improved durability, thermal insulation, eco-efficiency, and speed of construction using unskilled labor with minimum quality control on the jobsite.
