New facade increases design freedom - The project objectives were the development of a drapable textile reinforcement for a concrete matrix and the production process (concrete casting process) for double-curved TRC elements with continuous fibre reinforcement. Based on the expertise of Penn Textile Solutions GmbH in the production and development of elastic textiles, a new product approach for the development of a drapable reinforcement textile could be used in this project. A textile product was developed which is now used as a reinforcement structure for double-curved TRC elements.
