Mounting systems

versatile - thought out - reliable

Our mounting systems are multifunctional. With well thought-out designs, we want to realize environmentally friendly and safe products. In doing so, we dedicate ourselves to a wide variety of topics - always with the vision of designing a high-quality product.

Rapid Foundation sYstem

A secure anchoring in the ground is essential in many applications. To ensure this, concrete foundations are poured. In addition to high costs for materials and labor, this also results in disadvantages from an ecological point of view. The concrete foundations remain in the ground after use or can only be removed with great effort - the ground is sealed.

The foundation system (RFS) developed by paXos is a sustainable anchoring solution for a wide range of applications. In order to ensure a secure fastening in the ground, the tree root principle is imitated. The combination of an earth screw inserted into the ground and a rigid concrete slab underneath the final soil layer allows high bending and compressive stiffnesses to be realized. Waiting times due to the setting time of poured concrete are eliminated because already completed components are mounted.

SPECIFICATIONS

High bending moments can be transferred
Cost effective production
Fast, straightforward installation
No latency between installation and usage
Less material consumption than for conventional concrete foundations
Easy to dismantle and reusable if necessary
Environmental protection due to residue-free deconstruction

Special Features

Sustainable Conventional foundations remain in the soil even after use. The paXos foundation system can be removed without leaving any residues and thus protects the environment - no soil sealing is involved.
Installation The shear-compression-bending plate enables cost-effective installation with proven machines and techniques. Waiting times are eliminated and the construction can be loaded immediately. The required material contribution is significantly reduced.
Loads The existing bending and compressive stiffnesses within the anchorage allow high wind load dissipation and the absorption of weight loads. Thus, higher structures are feasible.
Cascading In order to capture as much soil as possible as a fundament, the foundation system can be selectively extended.

Applications

Our foundation system is a sustainable anchoring solution for a wide range of applications:

Large parasols / umbrellas
Traffic signs
Traffic light poles
Lanterns and lighting masts (floodlight )
Radio towers
Charging stations
Billboards
Fences (solar fence, Agri-PV)
Foundation for containers and prefabricated buildings
Sound barriers
Wind turbines

In addition to elevated pile loads, the paXos Rapid Foundation System can also be used for building loads (BL), e.g. to base containers or prefabricated buildings. In this case, a special attachment distributes the weight load ideally over the precast concrete slab, allowing up to 16 tons of load per foundation slab to be absorbed. In addition, a height-adjustable element is integrated in the RFS-BL, which eliminates the need for a frost-free foundation because it can simply be readjusted when the ground is set. This saves considerable costs in the overall construction planning and execution, especially in the earthworks.

Certification and tests

In cooperation with the company Deutsche Schraubfundament GmbH, we have been able to confirm the effectiveness of our shear-compression-bending plate in tests. Compared to a pure screw foundation, up to 85% higher forces and moments could be introduced. You will find more detailed information on this in the following sections.
