Abstract

Concrete element (1) which is poured e.g., into a mould (2) which has, or which can be fitted with a concrete reinforcement (3). The reinforcement (3) consists of round steel bars welded together crosswise and above each other in several layers, forming a stiff unit which is partially cast into the concrete element (1).<IMAGE>

CONCRETE ELEMENT - BETONGELEMENT

The present invention relates to a concrete element cast, for example, in a mold having, or to be placed in, a concrete stiffening reinforcement consisting of cross-linked and superimposed round steels welded to several layers and forming a unit which is partially cast in a concrete element.

The object of the invention is to provide a new type of light, rigid and easy-to-handle concrete element for various construction purposes, mainly for visible surfaces. The concrete element according to the invention is characterized in that the unit has at least four layers of round and welded round steels, which form a rigid unit in all directions. The invention provides a very rigid and thin durable concrete slab that can be easily attached from protruding reinforcement and even cast to various structures. This type of concrete slab is well suited for various renovation purposes.

The invention will now be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawing, in which

Figure 1 shows a top view of a concrete element in a mold.

Figure 2 shows a section taken along the line II-II in Figure 1.

The concrete element 1 consists of a concrete mass cast in a mold 2, in which reinforcement 3 is placed. The reinforcement 3 consists of round steels welded to each other in several layers. The reinforcement thus consists of a very rigid unit which is partly inside the concrete mass. The concrete element detached from the mold 2 thus has a smooth or desired surface and on one side there is reinforcement projecting from the concrete element, from which the concrete element 2 77714 can be easily attached to the required object. Thanks to the reinforcement 3, the concrete element is thin and durable and thus easy to handle. The concrete element does not necessarily have to be in the shape of an example, but its shape can vary as needed. The concrete element can also be made curved.
