PRECAST CONCRETE ELEMENTS196 CPI %u2013 Concrete Plant International %u2013 1 | 2026 www.cpi-worldwide.comIts compact size (5 cm) and concealed installation make it suitable both for new constructions and seismic retrofitting.Seismic connection systems (EDIL TPN & EDIL TTN)Edilmatic%u2019s seismic connection systems directly address one of the sector%u2019s most pressing needs: improving the structural response of existing precast buildings.The EDIL TPN and EDIL TTN devices have been designed to:%u2022 increase the energy dissipation capacity of the structure;%u2022 reduce forces transmitted to primary structural elements;%u2022 localize potential damage within the device, preserving beams, columns, and roof elements;%u2022 simplify inspection, installation, and replacement.These solutions are engineered to integrate with existing systems, enhancing durability and safety under severe seismic events.EFT System %u2013 Edilmatic Fixing TemporaryThe most recently introduced product is the EFT System %u2013 Edilmatic Fixing Temporary, designed for plumb alignment of precast columns without the use of traditional props.This solution is tailored for modern construction sites, where efficiency, speed, and safety are essential.The advantages reported by users include:%u2022 fast installation and simplified assembly phases;%u2022 cost reduction due to reusable components;Connection system for Beam-toPurlin and Beamto-Column joints.The Edil S System consists of hollow profiles connected by two sliding joints, plates, bolts, and fastening accessories, creating sliding guides that allow controlled movement at the connection.Temporary fixing system for securing columns to foundations. The system%u2014comprising a bracket, base plate, and anchor bolt%u2014keeps the column vertical and perfectly aligned during grout setting.
