Construction of the West Link is taking place under and above ground around Gothenburg. At the Kallebäck exit west of the E6, concrete engineer Frida Mesch and her colleagues at NCC are busy casting in and outside the southern tunnel mouth of the rail link. They use around 30 concrete computers to keep track of…
HA Bygg is literally laying the foundation for a new maternity hospital at Östra Sjukhuset in Gothenburg. A yellow smart concrete computer helps supervisor Fredrik Daun and his crew keep track of when castings have reached the right strength, saving a lot of valuable time.
For a long time, the Celsicom remote monitoring system could be used to remotely and in real time monitor concrete temperatures during casting. It has been possible to follow the initial increase in temperature due to the chemical reaction of the cement and the subsequent decrease in temperature as the concrete begins to fully cure.
Simply and safely without interference. This is how Ida Alexandersson and Staffan Johansson review the yellow data loggers from the Celsicom Easy Connect measurement system. The loggers were used to remotely monitor the casting of Station Centralen, the underground train station that will be a central part of the West Link.
Bengt Johansson and his colleagues at Sateba, a manufacturer of concrete grinders for railroad tracks, have been using two Celsicom TC603s for a year to monitor the strength of castings. Bengt’s verdict on these yellow “concrete computers”: a very affordable and simple measurement solution with impressive battery life and unbeatable reliability.
