Understanding
construction sites.
Three things are crucial in tough everyday construction site situations:
efficiency, safety and handling only someone who understands exactly
what happens on the construction site knows how to produce better
products compatible with one another and to continue their further
development. This is something we do based on our construction site
experts and a team of 1,000 engineers.
Smart products
are the foundation for efficiency.

Thinking efficiency
think of renting as well.
Whether to rent or buy is simply a
question of economics. More and
more customers avail themselves of
Doka Groups rental model because
it increases efficiency and flexibility in
addition to serving as an ideal com-
plement for covering peak demands.
No investment, no warehousing, no
maintenance. These formwork products
are always kept up by our service team
and available any time in any quantity
and design.
12. 12
Understanding projects.
Every construction site goes through its own process from planning stage
through to completion. And, the sooner we join the process, the better our
understanding of the project and the more we can improve its efficiency.
We are happy to support our customers in any phase of their formwork
projects. And we provide a single-source for products, services, planning,
project management and logistics. Only a few companies can offer this
understanding of all the many aspects of a construction project.
In good hands in
every phase.
Development of optimal form-
work solutions
Together with its customers, Doka Group
lays the foundation for project efficiency
with thorough analyses, objective risk
assessment, assistance with invitations
to bid, selection of the right formwork,
exact planning and calculation. Seen in
this light, "Engineered by Doka is the
hallmark of unsurpassed engineering
competence.
Perfectly organised logistics
Delivery and return delivery just-in-time 足
formwork availability is an important fac-
tor for implementing any project on time
and on budget. Any delay costs money.
For this reason, Doka Group created a
worldwide logistics network ensuring
absolute proximity to the respective con-
struction site and offering the requisite
capacities.
On-site coordination of the
construction process
Different requirements for materials and
engineering exist for each country and
each project. This is the reason Dokas
central formwork instructors play a key
role on-site. Another way to ensure
professional on-site implementation is
through engineering training to instruct
the site crew in Doka Group products
and their proper use.
Perfect project management is
at the heart of success
In order to create a seamless experience,
Doka project management assists cus-
tomers during the project development
stage, decision-making stage, operations
scheduling, execution and completion of
construction.

"Previously our orders for formwork materials
were always compiled after the project planning
stage. Today we take advantage of Dokas
professional consultation right from the outset of
the project development phase, and thus
achieve significant cost savings. The active
project support from Doka is a real added
value. In conjunction with the latest developments
in the area of formwork construction, we have
been able to set new benchmarks in our building
programme."

Project Manager, Ali & Sons Contracting

particularly resistant coating of the form-
work product surface ensures adequate
protection from the highly alkaline mate-
rial that is concrete. Another example is
timber, a natural material: turning it into a
robust instrument requires a special pro-
cess of multiple crosswise glue-bonding
combined with removal of defects and
subsequent finger-jointing. The same
applies to steel used for our products:
the new CDP dip coating system has
increased coating stability from 150 h
with the traditional coating method to
1,000 h.
Optimising safety and
handling
It is one thing to make working with
formwork ever easier and save more
time as a result. It is quite another to
make working with formwork ever more
safe and therefore more cost-efficient.
Dokas response to this insight is
ongoing development of safety products.
One such example is Xsafe plus, a pre-
assembled working platform that can be
folded and equipped with side railings for
wall and column formwork.
Research and
development
As early as 1990, the Doka Group set
up an in-house research and develop-
ment centre. Its staff of more than 100
continuously test new materials and work
on developing innovative products and
services, such as new concrete formulas
or 5D planning. In addition, there is
pathbreaking research and development
work undertaken in cooperation with
universities, senior technical colleges
and research institutes as part of open
innovation processes.
Inspired by the efficiency
factor
Each year we invest in excess of
200,000 labour hours into developing
new products, technologies and services
for Doka customers. The range of work
is broad:
New development and
adaptation
One such example is Doka Concremote
moisture measurement: this technology
not only reduces cycle times, thus re-
sulting in savings of labour and material
costs; it also aids in optimising formu-
lations and purchasing concrete. Apart
from saving significant costs in materials
and rework, using the extended framed
formwork Framax Xlife plus yields time
savings of up to one third.
New technologies
Product life span is a function of the
quality of materials used as well as
careful treatment. For instance, only
"I have been working with Doka formwork for many
years now. What I appreciate most about it, is the
practical application and the functionality of the various
systems and technical solutions. Time and again, Doka
picks up on global trends in the construction industry
and develops systems and solutions that fully meet the
current demands of construction sites."
tefan Gal鱈k, Doprastav Export s.r.o.
Understanding the future.
Keeping things moving forward is something like second nature to us. We are never quite con-
tent with our achievements and are always looking for new approaches. This is the reason we
invest so much time and money to produce even better results for our customers.

15. Our experts focus in their work on customers in order
to achieve maximum efficiency.
16. 16
Sustainable products and
services
High product quality and maximum pro-
tection against material wear means long
life span and safety. Thanks to ISO 9001
and ISO 14001, all Doka products com-
ply with the most stringent requirements
in terms of quality and environment.
Beyond that, each new product genera-
tion is compatible with the one already in
existence. Compatibility is a prerequisite
for a long product life cycle. Moreover,
an extended product cycle is resource-
sparing in every way and contributes to
positive outcomes in terms of efficiency.
Sustainable business models
Renting instead of buying a sustainable
model offered by Doka Group to accom-
modate ever more last-minute contract
awards and abbreviated planning cycles.
Along the way, renting also saves resour-
ces such as energy and raw materials.
Dokas pre-assembly service is another
opportunity for customers to realise
savings, such as in assembly efforts and
complex work processes. Here formwork
units are tailor-made for the long-term
by combining existing Doka systems with
customized solutions. In addition, Dokas
reconditioning service extends the life
span, provides safety and saves time and
money by delivering perfectly functioning
materials.
Sustainable logistics
Logistics is a vital factor for ideal const-
ruction site implementation. Doka Group
plays its part with international logistics
hubs. With their proximity to customers
they ensure high availability as well as
flexible and fast delivery to construction
sites. Furthermore, short delivery paths
reduce CO2
emissions in the long term.
Sustainable training and
professional development
Well-trained employees are not only
smart but above all highly motivated
and solution-oriented workers. This is an
important aspect as construction pro-
jects are becoming ever more complex
and efficiency-driven. This is the reason
Doka Group makes significant invest-
ments in ongoing employee training. It
therefore benefits from aboveaverage
loyalty to the company in the long run.
Understanding sustainability.
Sustainability has many
dimensions.
Everyone talks about sustainability. However, unless lived in real life it
is but a trendy phrase. In our company, we have been actively living
sustainability for many decades because we consider it an important
component of efficiency in construction.
17. Return-on-Prevention

Capital investments
in safety measures
Construction site safety
User safety is another top priority at Doka
Group. This was the reason for establi-
shing Doka Safety, an important initiative
aimed at developing heightened aware-
ness of safety-related issues as part of
comprehensive safety training sessions at
customer sites. After all, safety motivates
construction site workers to perform at
maximum levels and reduces the risk that
in a worst-case scenario the construction
site comes to a standstill. By now studies
provide evidence that: the factor for
calculating "return on prevention is 2.2.
19. Competence does not just happen; at Doka, it is created as a result of
daily experiences and concrete insights we gain from our customers
projects and then bundle in our Competence Centers. This is how we
get the most out of each and every formwork unit. In particular, when
it comes to highrises, bridges, tunnels, power plants and fair-faced
concrete projects.

On construction sites of gigantic dimensions, our specially developed Doka
automatic climbing formwork climbs hundreds of metres to the top swiftly. Our
formwork units were able to demonstrate their climbing skills during construction
of what is currently the worlds tallest tower, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai. And also
currently the highest upcoming building: the Kingdom Tower, 1 km in height.

Doka formwork was used in Dubai to help
construct the worlds tallest building. Doka
supplied the formwork solution for the
entire structure core. Inspired by an Ara-
bian desert flower, the shape of the tower
meant that the formwork needed to be
highly adaptable. In addition, the extremely
tight construction schedule necessitated
an ingenious utilisation plan.
