As part of our continued commitment to precision engineering and high-quality construction at the Glowing Star project—a 10-story residential development in Kalabria, Prishtina ,we’re pleased to announce the successful installation of Max Frank “Rail” type bar spacers across the base of the foundation slab.

These 50 mm fibre-reinforced concrete spacers, supplied by the internationally recognized Max Frank Group, are being placed consistently across the entire footprint of the slab, directly above the polyethylene membrane layer.

Key Product Specifications:

  • Type: Max Frank “Rail” Bar Spacer
  • Cover Depth: 50 mm
  • Material: Fibre-reinforced concrete, load-bearing and waterproofing-compatible
  • Application: Provides horizontal support and precise elevation for the bottom reinforcement layer

Why It Matters:

  • Guarantees a uniform and compliant concrete cover under the reinforcement, as required by structural and durability standards
  • Delivers stable support on soft or membrane-covered surfaces without displacement during slab pouring
  • Meets Eurocode criteria for corrosion protection, fire resistance, and long-term performance
  • Fully compatible with the waterproofing design of the 1.2-meter thick foundation slab

Often overlooked, these components are more than accessories they are critical structural elements that ensure the correct positioning of reinforcement, contribute to even load transfer, and protect against premature deterioration of the slab.

As we prepare for the next stages of construction, this marks yet another milestone in building a foundation that embodies precision, safety, and durability.
