As Qatar is marching towards achieving self-reliance in all sectors from food to construction, local companies too have geared up their efforts in this regard with new initiatives which will ultimately help materialising the goal.
In line with Qatar’s vision of achieving self-sufficiency, Halfen-Moment Group and their Qatari distributor Teyseer Rebar Contractors, a division of Teyseer Building Materials, recently held a technical seminar on “Advanced Precast – Connections and Lifting” to promote the latest developments in Qatar.
The seminar was conducted by Gary Connan, Technical and Development Manager at Halfen-Moment Group. The Seminar included a mix of lectures, technical sessions, and case studies through interaction with the participants.
K S Kumar,General-Manager of Teyseer Building Materials and Transport Company told The Peninsula: “Under the motto of self-sufficiency as Qatar envisaged under Qatar National Vision 2030, Teyseer Group has taken many steps to explore, source and evaluate new business opportunities. This seminar is one of many steps taken by Teyseer Group. The aim of the seminar was to convey the engineers of Doha about Halfen Moment products, which help to reduce cost, improve safety and widen precast use such as the recess provided in the lifting clutches and their ‘invisible connections’.”
Discussions in the seminar primarily revolved around lifting and erecting of precast elements; connections for wall panels; connections for columns and beams and connections for stair landings in the precast sector. The event was also an opportunity for Halfen-Moment Group and Teyseer Rebar Contractors to provide a platform to exchange views on precast technologies in the region.
