Abstract

A shuttering element for producing concrete and reinforced concrete structures comprises a multi-layer panel and a frame element which at least partially surrounds the multi-layer panel and provides at least one identification element that can be contactlessly written on the read form. Methods for producing and repairing such shuttering elements are also provided.

Claims

1. Formwork element for producing concrete and reinforced concrete structures comprises, in combination:

(a) at least one multilayer panel; and

(b) at least one frame element which at least partly surrounds the at least one multilayer panel, the frame element being formed as a panel carrier, and the frame element comprising at least one contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element,

wherein the contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element is fixed inside the frame element.

2. A formwork element according to claim 1, wherein the multilayer panel comprises at least two layers and wherein between the at least two layers of the multilayer panel, at least one contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element is provided.

3. A formwork element according to claim 2, wherein the multilayer panel is connected with its surrounding frame element.

4. A formwork element according to claim 2, wherein at least one layer of the at least two layers of the multilayer panel is formed as a coating.

5. A formwork element according to claim 2, wherein between the at least two layers of the multilayer panel, the contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element is connected, materially-joined with the multilayer panel in such way that the identification element is not visible.

6. A formwork element according to claim 1, wherein the frame element is formed as a panel carrier which surrounds the multilayer panel at the edges and/or from the underside by all sides.

7. A formwork element according to claim 1, wherein the contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element is formed as an integral part of the frame element.

8. A formwork element according to claim 1, wherein the contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element is placed and fixed in a recess, which is formed in the structure of the frame element.

9. A formwork element according to claim 1, wherein the contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element is a transponder.

10. A formwork element according to claim 1, wherein the contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element is a transponder and uses a radio data communication technology with frequencies in the range between 3 MHz and 6 GHz.

11. A formwork element according to claim 1, wherein the contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element is a transponder and uses a radio data communication technology with frequencies in the range between 3 MHz and 6 GHz and wherein the magnetic portion of the used energy field is less than 45%.

12. A formwork element according to claim 1, wherein the contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element is a transceiver.

13. A formwork element according to claim 1, wherein the contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element is a transceiver and uses a radio data communication technology with frequencies in the range between 30 Hz and 1 MHz.

14. A formwork element according to claim 1, wherein the contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element is a transceiver and uses a radio data communication technology with frequencies in the range between 30 Hz and 1 MHz and wherein the magnetic portion of the used energy field is at least 60%.

15. Formwork element for producing concrete and reinforced concrete structures comprises, in combination:

(a) at least one multilayer panel; and

(b) at least one frame element which at least partly surrounds the at least one multilayer panel, the frame element being formed as a panel carrier, and the frame element comprising at least one contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element, the contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element being formed as an integral part of the frame element or being placed and fixed in a recess formed in the structure of the frame element.

16. A formwork element according to claim 15, wherein the recess in the frame element, in which the identification element is inserted, faces the outside.

17. A formwork element according to claim 15, wherein the recess in the frame element, in which the identification element is inserted, is disposed within the profile structure of the frame element.

18. Formwork element for producing concrete and reinforced concrete structures comprises, in combination:

(a) at least one multilayer panel; and

(b) at least one frame element which at least partly surrounds the at least one multilayer panel, the frame element being formed as a panel carrier, and the frame element comprising at least one contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element, the contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element being formed as an integral part of the frame element or being placed and fixed in a recess formed in the structure of the frame element, wherein the contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element is formed as an integral part of the frame element.

19. Formwork element for producing concrete and reinforced concrete structures comprises, in combination:

(a) at least one multilayer panel; and

(b) at least one frame element which at least partly surrounds the at least one multilayer panel, the frame element being formed as a panel carrier, and the frame element comprising at least one oontactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element, the contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element being formed as an integral part of the frame element or being placed and fixed in a recess formed in the structure of the frame element, wherein the contactlessly writeable and/or readable electronic identification element is placed and fixed in a recess, which is formed in the structure of the frame element.
