The Nawaseeb Road in Kuwait forms an important part of the country's national infrastructure, providing a strategic, logistical corridor to neighbouring Saudi Arabia. In delivering a solution for the highway bridge section, Doka has helped provide Kuwait with a landmark achievement; its first, in-situ cantilever bridge. As a full-service provider, Doka supplied an all-in-one solution, which included 3D planning, Cantilever Forming Travellers (CFT), and formwork instructors' support to ensure a smooth, fast and cost-effective process.

Doka now offers formwork solutions AND scaffolding, but this is about more than just products. Well thought-out solutions and services from planning and engineering to trainings ensure transparency in complex projects, optimising material flows and cost efficiency.

Located in the Bahraini capital’s former central business district on Customs Square, Bab Al Bahrain is a historical building that marks the entrance to the Manama Souq. Thanks to an initiative launched in collaboration between the Ministry of Transportation and Telecommunication and the Bahrain Authority for Culture and Antiquities (BACA), this Belgrave-designed gateway is set to once again play a central role as Manama’s post office.

Formwork experts, Doka have unveiled a wide range of digital services at this year’s Bauma exhibition, which took place earlier this week in the Bavarian capital of Munich.

Umdasch Group Ventures, the innovation hub of the Umdasch Group AG and future designer of construction, will present three potentially disruptive innovations for construction processes at bauma 2019:
• Contakt – digital construction site intelligence for an effective and sustainable increase in the productivity of construction processes.
• Neulandt 3P – a mobile field factory for worldwide industrial production of precast concrete elements to create living space.
• Contour Crafting – large-scale 3D construction printing with concrete on site.

Doka Gulf recognised at the 10th Cycle of the Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Business Awards for Excellence

Digital technologies and systems are influencing the construction sector more than ever before. Digitisation has an enormous scope and potential to boost efficiency and cost-effectiveness across the entire construction process. In this context, Building Information Modelling (BIM) is definitely one of the main factors influencing the construction industry. Doka sees this innovative approach as a key method for optimising construction processes, boosting productivity on site and designing the ideal solutions. Doka used BIM to map the formwork solutions for the SOFiSTiK office building project in Germany.

Dubai Municipality sign memorandum of understanding with Doka, marking a major step towards the emirate’s industrial 3D printing targets.

With the emphasis on academia dominating the career paths of many graduates, we take a look at the importance of vocational training and its significance in 21st century.
