Barkauer Cross, Kiel

Maintenance and Surface Protection for the Motorway Junktion “Barkauer Kreuz“ Kiel, DE

After 50 years of intensive use and increasing traffic volumes, the city of Kiel, Germany, has begun to have the Barkauer Kreuz traffic junction renovated in three construction phases. The first construction phase was successfully completed in August 2020.

During this first construction phase, the elevated road, which was completed in 1968, underwent concrete repairs on the underside of the bridge and on all pillars in the western area. The repairs were preceded by a professional structural inspection and building condition assessment.

StoConcrete Repair Prime TS 100
StoConcrete Repair Prime TS 100 was used for the pillars, a tested concrete repair system from the wide-ranging StoCretec product line. It is particularly suitable for the stability-relevant repair of concrete structures with static involvement and for protecting the reinforcement from corrosion.

StoConcrete Repair Prime TS 100 can be applied to bridge structures under dynamic loads - i.e. while traffic is moving. This saves road users from unpleasant long road closures. In addition, the StoCrete TS 100 dry-mix sprayed mortar can be used to create a layer thickness of up to 50 mm in one application cycle. This means that the necessary concrete cover and topography of the pillars can be created quickly. StoConcrete Repair Prime TS 100 is also characterised by its good thermal compatibility. It easily withstands hot summers and extreme stresses caused by “cloudbursts” in mid-summer.
