Plastpallar

Plastpallar is a type of prefabricated pre-stressed concrete (PCC) pillar used in the construction of high-speed rail lines, highways, and other large infrastructure projects. The term is used in various parts of the world, mainly in Europe and Latin America.

The structure consists of a reinforced concrete core surrounded by a thin layer of high-strength concrete, often referred to as SPC (self-compacting paste) or HSC (high-strength concrete). This process allows for the efficient transfer of pre-stressed forces through the entire section, providing increased strength and rigidity to the pillar.

The application of plastpallar technology in construction projects offers several advantages, including enhanced structural stability, reduced maintenance costs, and improved environmental benefits. The method can also be utilized in areas with restricted access or space constraints, as it simplifies the installation process.

One of the key advantages of implementing plastpallar technology is the reduced weight of the pillars compared to traditional solutions. This has positive implications for bridge and road infrastructure projects, where significant stress on the foundation is a common challenge.

Throughout Europe and parts of Latin America, plastpallar has become a standard element in the development of transportation infrastructure. This is mainly due to the inroads made by European construction companies in countries such as Chile, Peru, and Bangladesh.
