SPEEDING UP THE DELIVERY OF CIVIL PROTECTION
The construction of a cast-in-place shelter typically takes between two and three weeks, including the demolition of the mould. The time is also extended by the need for post-tensioning of the vault. The size of the shelter is the main factor affecting the lead time, but the organisation of the site also plays an important role.
A-FOUNDATION DESIGN DEPARTMENT NOW MORE VERSATILE
In May, A-Perustus strengthened its structural design with the addition of two people. Previously focused on concrete construction, the structural design has been developed into a more holistic structural design, which is believed to better serve the needs of clients. The reinforcement of the design department will also enable structural design to be provided as a stand-alone service.

QUALITY - WHAT IS IT?
Now that's a question that challenges its answerers time and time again. No unequivocal answer has yet been found. While waiting for enlightenment, the best thing to do is to focus on continuous improvement, i.e. to try to do better than yesterday, time after time. That's the easy part, isn't it?
