Concrete is the most widely consumed substance after water in the world, and life without it would be unimaginable. Using reinforced concrete elements in construction ensures several advantages. The topic is introduced by the sales director of E-Betoonelement Aare Pärna and commented on by the architect at Nord Project AS Andres Kariste and the director of engineering at AS TTP Herki Narusk.
"Kuna tänapäeva majadele esitatakse kõrged soojuspidavuse ja energiatõhususe nõuded, saab raudbetoonile kindel olla."
1. Kiirus nii ehitusplatsil kui ka tähtaegades. Erinevalt ühekihilistest plokkidest ehitamisest, mille välisviimistluse ja soojustusega tuleb eraldi tegeleda, paigaldatakse kolmekihilised fassaadielemendid ehitusplatsil kokku täiesti kompaktsetena. Sandwich-paneelid koosnevad kahest raudbetoonikihist ning nende vahel asetsevast soojustusest ning nendest hoone karbi kokkuladumine võttis näiteks Mustamäe Pöörise tänava 14-korruseliste korterelamute puhul aega paar kuud, eramute puhul on see aeg kordades lühem.
Not less important is the fact that since the finished panels are manufactured as a result of factory-controlled processes, slipping deadlines will disappear and the time spent on building completion can be accurately set on the calendar, regardless of the changing weather conditions.
2. Taskukohane ehitusmaterjal. Kõrge kvaliteet valmislahendusena ei pruugi alati tähendada kõrget hinda, sest betoon ise materjalina on suhteliselt soodne. Elementidest ehitades on objektil tööjõukulud väiksemad võrreldes näiteks müürsepatöödega. Tänu vastupidavusele ja madalatele hoolduskuludele tuleb lisahinnavõit ka pikaajalise ekspluatatsiooni käigus säästetud summalt. E-Betoonelement kasutab enamjaolt kohalikku toorainet betooni valmistamiseks.
3. Optimeeritud tehnoloogia BIM, mille abil arhitektid saavad läbiviigud, ventilatsioonikanalid, kommunikatsioonid juba projekteerimisjärgus 3D-mudelis sisse planeerida reaalsetes gabariitides. Kõikide detailide ja viikude puhul on seosed näha, nii ei teki ehitusplatsil üllatusi, et mingi asi pole omal kohal. Siinjuures tuleb arvestada mõnede faktoritega paneelide dimensioneerimisel, sest tekivad piirmõõdud nii transpordi puhul kui ka monteerimisel.
4. Pikaealine. Juba iidses Egiptuses ja Hiinas toodeti betooni ja tehti rajatisi, mille tunnistajaks oleme veel tänapäeval. Betoon oma olemuselt on äärmiselt vastupidav ning hoones, mille ehitad Sina kooskõlas moodsate tehnoloogiatega, võivad tegutseda mitmed järgmised põlvkonnad.
5. Kaunis ja keskkonnasõbralik. Nord Projekt ASi arhitekt Andres Kariste sõnul pole paneelid ammu enam tuima halli väljanägemisega. „Betooni pinnale saab faktuuri trükkida või patineerida nagu näiteks raudsulfaadiga Palmse mehaanikakoja puhul. Patineerimise kasutamine pakub pilkupüüdvaid värvilahendusi: pruunikaid, sinakaid, vasekarva, elavaid toone. Samuti saab tehases välispinnale panna keraamilisi plaate, looduskivi, laduda tellisemustreid. Betoon juba kivistumise käigus mängib veidi oma tooniga ning on stiilne monokroomsenagi, kuid seejuures jääb alles võimalus kasutada ka värvilisi betoone. Hoonele huvitava välisilme loomisel on kliendil mängumaa üsna lai ning alati võimalus arhitekti pakutud julgemate uuendustega kaasa tulla,“ kinnitab arhitekt.
Environmentally-friendly local raw materials such as crushed stone, sand, cement keep the interference to environment as little as possible. In addition, concrete is almost 100% recyclable!
6. Tervislik – betoon on ise suhteliselt aurutihe materjal, kuid vähene niiskus, mis konstruktsiooni läbib, tuulutatakse soojustusest väikeste tuulutuskanalitega välja, see kõik väldib hallitusseente teket ja hoiab sooja. Siseõhu kvaliteedi ja õhuniiskuse hoiab elementmaja inimsõbralikul tasemel. Puudub vajadus pindu seente- või putukatevastase tõrjega töödelda.
7. Betoonelement maja on kindel – turvaline ja tuleohutu. Raudbetooni stabiilne struktuur ja füüsikalised omadused kaitsevad hoonet ja elanikke võimalike looduskatastroofide nagu orkaanid või löökide-plahvatuste eest. Enamik rasketesse piirkondadesse ehitatud kaitserajatisi tehakse just sellest materjalist, et pakkuda maksimaalset kaitset. Meie tingimustes toob arhitekt Kariste välja hooldus- ja vandaalikindla välispinna: „Sellelt on hea ja lihtne mustust survepesuriga maha pesta, mida kergkrohv-seina puhul on riskantne teha, kuna surve võib katte viia.“
For the forces of nature -hangs on for storms, even for floods for a short time, and the water can not enter the structures in the case of saddles. Everyone knows that the concrete is not burning: the fire-resistance of the building can be raised for two hours and more - the supporting structure hangs on.
8. Müra- ja soojusisolatsioon. Betoonil on suurepärane võime summutada müra. Mida massiivsem materjal, seda mürakindlam: keskmine raudbetoonist välisseina element vähendab müranivood 60 detsibelli, kui samas kergsein vaid 30 dB. Peale heliisolatsiooni pakub betoon samaväärselt head termoisolatsiooni, hoides temperatuuri stabiilsena nii külma kui ka sooja ilma puhul. Suured klaasfassaadid pole tänapäeval enam teema, arhitekt Andres Kariste rõhutab pigem energiatõhusust: „Kuna tänapäeva majadele esitatakse kõrged soojapidavuse ja energiatõhususe nõuded, saab raudbetoonile kindel olla. Oma suhteliselt suure massi tõttu töötab see akumulaatorina, hoides stabiilset sisekliimat.“
See how the first houses of Pöörise residential area were made of concrete elements!

"LAKHTA CENTER" in St. Petersburg (under construction).
LAKHTA CENTER
The currently under construction energy company "Gazprom" headquarters in St. Petersburg on the coast of the Gulf of Finland, with a predominantly 465-meter skyscraper.
More than half of the complex surfaces are for public use.
The classic panorama of St. Petersburg is quite flat, with some of the peaked landmarks highlighted: Peter and Paul Fortress Tower, Admiralty Tower, in addition to the cathedral's dome.
Now they are in dialogue with them 9 kilometers from the historic city center to the skyscraper's highest skyscraper in Europe.
The public viewing platform is 357 meters high, making Europe the highest.
The highest in Europe is also a panoramic restaurant - 330 meters high.
In 2015, the zero cycle was completed.
The complex should be ready in 2018.
„EVOLUTION TOWER“ (2015)
Evolution Tower
A 246-meter high, 55-story spiral building is located in Moscow's downtown business district on the Moscow River, on the Presnenskaya River.
The building has the impression that the two ribbons are twisted around each other. Each subsequent floor is at an angle of 3 degrees on the previous floor, a total of 135 degrees.
Already before the "Evolution Tower" was completed, the modern icon of Moscow became a sculptural building, becoming a symbol of business charm and rapid development. In 2016 Transneft bought a skyscraper for $ 1 billion.
Concrete records:
- vundamendi stabiilsus on saavutatud 2080 paigalvalu-betoonist vaiaga;
- esimest korda ajaloos on kõrghoone vundamendis kasutatud 2-meetrise diameetriga paigalvalu-betoonist vaiu;
- vundamendi alusplaadi valamine katkematu betoonivaluna nõudis 19 624 m3 betooni, mis oli valamise hetkel (2015) uueks maailmarekordiks.

Manager of E-Betoonelement Vaido Leosk: “Saturday marked 25 years since the establishment of E-Betoonelement. A meeting of representatives of three companies – EE Ehitus AS, OY Rudus AB and SRV International OY – took place on 11 February 1992. As a result of the discussion, a resolution was signed to establish a new business – EE Betoonelement AS.”
„Tolle aja mõte - ühendada piiritagused elemenditehnoloogia teadmised ning Eesti ettevõtjate tarmukus, tohutu soov luua ja areneda on edukalt vilja kandnud. Täna 25 aastat hiljem on E-Betoonelement suurima tootmismahuga elementide tootja Eestis, kes pakub lisaks oma klientidele nii elementlahenduste projekteerimis- kui ka elementide paigaldusteenust. Oleme osa suurest kontsernist Consolis, mis tagab meile võimaluse jagada ning saada teadmisi sõsarettevõtetelt kolmekümnest riigist. Ettevõtte loojate põhiidee toimib ka tänases hetkes,“ selgitab Vaido Leosk.
„25 aastat on huvitav iga. Eesti aegruumis on tegu kogenud ja eluküpse ettevõttega, sest vanemad ettevõtted, kes elasid üle nõukogude perioodi, leidub vähe. Maailma mõistes on tegu noore ettevõttega, kes pole oma ärimudelit pidanud drastiliselt muutma. Oleme kindlad oma ärimudelile, pakkudes klientidele kestvaid funktsionaalseid elementlahendusi! Betoonelementide tehnoloogia on selle aluseks ja me usume, et tööstuslik betoonelementide tehnoloogia on jätkuvalt turul parimaid lahendusi. Kas see ka jääb nii maailma kiires tehnoloogilises arengus? Seda me täna veel ei tea!" lisab Vaido Leosk.

According to Aare Pärna, Sales Manager at E-Betoonelement, the shortage of qualified labour worries the company the most.
“It’s the kind of problem that we don’t have a good solution to even now,” he admitted, adding that all companies are looking for ways to cope with the shortage of labour. According to Pärna, workers are often bought over. “Market economy!” Pärna commented.
Tight competition on the concrete market
Pärna says that although competition on the concrete market is tight, E-Betoonelement cannot complain about how the company is doing. “By now, our spring is fully sold out and we are already selling the summer period,” he said. Everything is up for sale: concrete elements for apartment buildings, shopping centres and warehouses. “It’s difficult to say which product sells the most, because the Estonian market is very site-based. If 1–2 larger sites are underway, these constitute a big part of the entire production volume,” he said.
