Primary Applications
for aluminium

Aluminium is widely valued in the construction and civil engineering sectors due to its combination of strength, versatility, and low weight. Its outstanding shaping capabilities and strong load-bearing performance make it particularly suitable for modern structures that require lightweight solutions, long-term stability, and high resistance to corrosion.

Civil engineering Applications

Typical applications for aluminum

Aluminium is widely used in windows, doors, facades, roofs and walls. Its strength keeps slim frames stable, while its exceptional durability ensures long-lasting performance. With minimal maintenance and no need for frequent replacement, aluminium is a reliable and cost-effective choice.

Characteristics Characteristics

What are the key properties of aluminium in building and civil engineering?

  • Aluminium helps to reduce the dead load of building structures
  • Aluminium’s corrosion resistance makes it an ideal material for exterior facades
  • Weight savings: aluminium offers a significantly higher strength-to-weight ratio than steel, making it ideal for lightweight construction
