Definitions

  • the invention relates to an apparatus and a method for casting concrete wall elements, which together form a wall of a container, in particular, among others, of a fermenter for biogas plants, running along a curvature at least in sections. Fluids or other substances are filled into such typically cylindrical fermenters for fermentation in biogas plants.
  • a container for constructing the container it is typical to first cast a base of concrete on the foundation. Then a plurality of substantially cuboidal wall elements, likewise of cast concrete, can be erected on this base. In the erected state, together, the wall elements form the polygon-like container wall.
  • the wall elements for this must be provided with angled face side wall surfaces so that adjacently erected elements can be placed with their face surfaces next to each other without forming a gap.
  • the face sides must be precisely formed. The same is true for the remaining dimensions of the elements because the leak tightness of the container, in particular, is of crucial importance.
  • adjacent wall elements must be connected together. For this purpose, it can be necessary to provide reinforcing rods or similar in the wall elements, and appropriate connections in the elements so that the reinforcing rods of adjacent elements can be connected together.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide an apparatus and a method of the initially named type, with which the concrete wall elements can be provided on-site in a simple and precise manner.
  • the invention achieves this object with an apparatus for casting concrete wall elements of the initially named type, comprising:
  • the invention achieves the object also with a method for casting concrete wall elements, which together form a wall of a container running along a curvature at least in sections, in particular of a fermenter for a biogas plant, comprising the steps:
  • a high-value formwork is available at the installation site of the container due to the bounding elements; using the formwork the wall elements of the container can be cast with concrete.
  • the first half of the wall elements of the container are cast in the fields, and subsequently erected, and in a second work step, the second half of the wall elements of the container are cast in the fields and subsequently erected.
  • formwork elements are detachably fastened at least to a few bounding elements which form formwork surfaces that lie opposite each other in a field and that are aligned at an angle to the vertical, said formwork surfaces represent the face sides of adjacent wall elements facing each other in the erected state, and that the formwork elements at the formwork surfaces each have at least one receiving device, and wherein one end of at least one reinforcing element to be cast into the concrete is fastened in receiving devices of formwork surfaces lying opposite each other in a field.
  • the bounding elements run in the horizontal direction on the level foundation and form a grid of fields to be filled with concrete.
  • the bounding elements can be beams, for example steel or aluminum beams. Their position can be fixed using diagonals and/or braces so that a dimensionally exact position is attained.
  • a separation layer for instance a separation film, is provided on the bottom of the field to prevent the poured concrete from bonding to the foundation that also consists of concrete, for instance.
  • the wall elements lie on the foundation with their front sides or back sides provided as outer or inner walls of the container. Then, they are lifted from the foundation together with the formwork elements, and the formwork elements are removed from the wall elements. Next, the wall elements are set upright, and erected for forming the container wall, wherein adjacent elements are connected at their face side surfaces.
  • the formwork surfaces running in the horizontal direction along the bounding elements form the surfaces abutting each other at the joints between adjacent wall elements in the erected state.
  • the container wall can run along a circle, at least in sections. It is then formed as a polygon due to the wall elements.
  • the angled formwork surfaces ensure that the joints between the side surfaces of adjacent wall elements can be closed.
  • the wall elements have essentially plane parallel front and back sides, which each can be formed essentially as rectangles. Thus, except for the angled side surfaces, the wall elements are substantially cuboid.
  • the reinforcing is already prepared in a simple manner during casting. After erecting, reinforcing elements of adjacent wall elements can then be easily connected together.
  • receiving devices can be provided at each formwork surface. Accordingly, several reinforcing elements then run in a field between opposite receiving devices.
  • Projections can be provided at the bottom and/or top of the formwork elements, e.g. at the possibly provided head surfaces, which create appropriate chamfers on the wall element.
  • further formwork elements that represent the top and bottom of the wall elements can naturally be provided in a field. Depending on the desired shape, these can form vertical formwork surfaces, in particular.
  • fastening elements that are also cast and allow receiving the cast wall elements while erecting the wall, can be disposed in the fields of the apparatus. It is also possible to dispose elements in the fields to be cast with concrete that represent openings in the wall elements to be produced, for example for hatches, safety flaps, etc.
  • the reinforcing elements can be reinforcing rods or reinforcing cables.
  • the reinforcing elements can also be reinforcing tubes, in particular reinforcing empty tubes or respectively jacket tubes, for respectively receiving a reinforcing rod or reinforcing cable.
  • the reinforcing elements and in particular the reinforcing rods or respectively reinforcing cables can be made of steel.
  • the reinforcing rods or respectively reinforcing cables of adjacent wall elements are connected together after erecting the elements. With the reinforcing tubes, the reinforcing rods or reinforcing cables can be inserted before or after pouring the concrete into the tubes.
  • connection especially of reinforcing rods or respectively reinforcing cables, can be performed by welding, for example.
  • Reinforcing cables that are connected to the reinforcing rods can form loops in the face area of the wall elements. Loops of adjacent elements can then be placed above one another and connected together by a reinforcing rod guided through the loops.
  • the foundation itself can be formed by the base of the container to be erected.
  • the container base provides a planar foundation well suited for pouring the concrete wall elements thereupon.
  • the container base is therefore, also, of concrete that is cast on site.
  • the reinforcing elements in particular, the reinforcing rods or reinforcing tubes, can run curved between the receiving devices of opposing formwork surfaces.
  • the axis of curvature can run in particular in the horizontal direction. They can run in particular in a circular arc shape between the receiving devices.
  • the curvature required in each case is specified by an appropriate alignment of opposing receiving devices.
  • At least one of the receiving devices in particular a few or all of the receiving devices located opposite each other in a field can each have a cylindrical element fixed in the formwork surface, wherein the reinforcing tube(s) are slipped onto the cylindrical element(s). Recesses can then be provided in the formwork elements, and the cylindrical element(s) are placed therein. After casting, the formwork elements with the cylindrical elements are removed from the wall elements.
  • at least one of the receiving devices, in particular a few or all of the receiving devices located opposite each other in a field can each have a bore hole provided in the respective formwork surface, wherein the reinforcing rod(s) or reinforcing tubes are inserted into the bore hole(s).
  • the at least one receiving device in particular a few or all of the receiving devices located across opposite other in a field can each have a sleeve fastened in the formwork surface, wherein the receiving rod(s) or receiving tubes are inserted into the sleeve(s).
  • the sleeves can each have an outer surface tapering conically starting from the formwork surface. This facilitates removing the formwork after casting.
  • One or more of the reinforcing rods can have at least one, in particular at both ends, head having an expanded cross section with respect to the reinforcing rod.
  • Such heads can be formed pot-like or solid.
  • the rods with their heads can be inserted, e.g. in sleeves or boreholes in the formwork elements.
  • the heads can then be placed on one another, and for example, connected together by clamping.
  • Such clamping can be formed, for example by two half-shells encompassing the heads that are fixed by a ring.
  • At least one reinforcing rod can have at least one end a head having an expanded cross-section with respect to the reinforcing rod, and at least one other reinforcing rod can have at least at one end a shaped piece with an undercut, wherein for connecting the reinforcing rods of wall elements that are adjacent in the erected state, the head of the one reinforcing rod can be hooked into the undercut of the opposite reinforcing rod.
  • the reinforcing rods at both ends with a head and the other reinforcing rods at both ends with a shaped piece.
  • the shaped pieces can, in a particularly practical manner, each have a keyhole opening through which the head of another reinforcing rod can be hooked into the respective undercut.
  • quasi-continuous rods are formed in the walls, wherein the rods of adjacent wall elements can be hooked into one another in a particularly simple manner.
  • the respective heads or shaped elements can in turn be held in sleeves and/or bore holes in the formwork elements.
  • a further embodiment provides that at least one end region, in particular both end regions, of the reinforcing elements are encompassed in each case at least in sections, particularly completely, by a shaped element that forms a recess in the cast concrete wall element at the end region(s).
  • shaped elements can be composed of rigid foam, for example. Recesses formed this way allow subsequent access in the region of the connection of two erected wall elements for fastening the reinforcing elements together, e.g. for a welding procedure or another type of connection. It is also possible to dispose shaped elements at a few or all of the formwork surfaces, which form joints in the cast wall elements. Sealing compound can be placed in such joints.
  • the shaped elements can be bars for example, which are formed as half-rounds so that a cylindrical recess forms with assembled walls.
  • the projection forms a recess, and the recess during casting forms the corresponding projection.
  • this projection fits in a kind of block shear connector into the recess. This way, the walls and for example, joints provided therein, are connected together in a shear-resistant manner.
  • the shape and the size of the projections and the recesses are matched to the selected embodiment of the formwork surfaces and reinforcing elements.
  • At least one film can be provided in the area of contact between the formwork elements and the foundation.
  • at least one film is disposed on the foundation of at least one field, in particular under several or respectively all fields.
  • Such films are used to seal the container formed by the wall elements.
  • the film can furthermore extend at least over the formwork surfaces of the at least one field, in particular over several or respectively all fields. In the erected state of the wall elements, these films cover the top and bottom sides of the wall elements.
