System platform type modula® and modula® temporary

System / prefabricated platform unit

The modular precast rc (reinforced concrete) platforms developed and patented at Hering Bau consists of prefabricated platform modules for a wide variety of applications.

Modular precast rc platforms - system advantages

• All systems homologated by the German Federal Railway Authority (EBA)
• Finished surface rc platforms: A wide range of finished surfaces prefabricated in the factory is possible with integrated guide system for visually impaired persons, fastening components, earthing, anchor plates, manhole covers and recesses
• delivery with platform equipment and platform roofs is also possible
• only one safety-catch for ballast is required within the foundation area, since the foundation is generally located outside the pressure area caused by the railway travelling load
• a very short construction period guarantees a minimum of interference to the rail operations during assembly as well as a reduction of the project costs concerning necessary safety services, periods of track blocking and building site logistics

Further advantages of finished surface rc platforms

• beam system and platform surfaces are prefabricated as one constructional element
• assembly outside the danger area with subsequent shifting of the platform to the final position is possible in special cases
• infinitely variable measurements of the system; thus suitable for all public transport systems
• supply lines and pieces of equipment can be retrofitted without destroying the platform; visual inspections by special technical staff are normally also possible
• cost-effective possibility of a subsequent alteration of the access level by means of raising or lowering the pre-cast system platform
• rental of the temporary platform variants and their multiple possible use
• all types can be combined with each other
• also suitable for platform extensions
• noise protection and screen walls can be integrated within the system of the modular precast platform
• the prefabricated platform unit is produced in the company’s own pre-cast concrete sections factory
