DELTABEAM® and PCs® Corbel solution used in this iconic tower. DELTABEAM® selected to accommodate high loading and maintain slim floor requirements (DELTABEAM® is position within the floor zone and has no down-stand). PCs® Corbel is a hidden corbel solution with high installation and adjustment tolerance – encast part is flush to formwork face & after striking, projecting part is bolted on – thus providing an immediate hangar for DELTABEAM®.

Combination of DELTABEAM® and PCs® Corbel results in a very efficient and economic build, without need to engineer non-standard formwork.
