Corefast lift/stair cores

Bi-Steel is a Tata Steel patented steel/concrete composite material developed for high performance applications that require strength and structural rigidity.

Bi-Steel panels are manufactured and fabricated into Corefast modules off-site, then transported to the project site where they are quickly and accurately assembled to form the core. Once in position, the panels are filled with concrete to create a robust structure with outstanding strength and stiffness.

Benefits

• Faster to build – up to six times faster to construct than an equivalent concrete core
• Highly flexible – each solution is designed to meet specific requirements 
• Improved efficiency – due to better build sequence and reduced site congestion
• Enhanced site safety – no formwork required, resulting in fewer hours working at height
• Greater accuracy – improved interface with adjoining steelwork
• Increased capital values – slimmer walls can release additional lettable floor space

Suitable for cores from eight storeys to over 100 storeys, Corefast is a proven technology that is currently delivering benefits to all members of the construction project team in retail, commercial and residential schemes throughout the UK.
