Doka provides innovative formwork and scaffolding, solutions and services, has been a partner for years providing digital solutions for increasing efficiency and safety on construction sites. With the introduction of the new DokaXact Load & Pressure sensors in Saudi Arabia, Doka now enables real-time monitoring of the pouring process.
Choosing the right concrete pouring speed depends on external factors, such as the weather or the concrete mix. The real-time data from the new wireless DokaXact sensors ensure that concrete is poured as fast as possible while ensuring safety and the best possible concrete quality – even when using more climate friendly, CO2-reduced concrete mixes. DokaXact sensors are robust, waterproof, dustproof, and can be easily connected to the user’s smartphone via Bluetooth.
“The integration of advanced technologies like BIM (Revit) and digital formwork solutions is reshaping the construction industry in Saudi Arabia (KSA). Our commitment to staying ahead of the curve is evident in our extensive efforts to educate and train our clients in KSA on these cutting-edge tools. The overwhelmingly positive response we’ve received underscores the growing demand for these solutions. Doka’s comprehensive suite of digital solutions, including DokaXact Load & Pressure sensors, reflects our dedication to leading the industry towards a more efficient and adaptable future,” commented Peter Fischer, Managing Director of Advanced Formwork Doka.
DokaXact Load offers a solution for monitoring formwork loads. The sensors are designed for straightforward installation on standard tie systems, thus providing reliable data on tie loads for the first time. No special tools or major installation work are required.
The DokaXact pressure sensor is designed for monitoring fresh concrete pressure. Installation is quick and easy, because it can be mounted directly on the plywood and requiring only a 26 mm hole. They can be used in the energy sector, in residential or commercial construction, and in projects with critical anchor loads or high, single-sided walls or pillars.
The data from both sensors is visualised in real time in the user-friendly DokaXact app directly on a smartphone. The intuitive user interface allows for simple and independent operation. The DokaXact web portal also provides detailed information and transparent documentation on the project.
The new DokaXact sensors offer significant applications, for large-scale infrastructure projects such as tunnels. However, just as the reliable formwork systems from Doka are suitable for a wide range of concrete construction sites, so is the DokaXact sensors.
