TKM Thermokorb®

Our TKM Thermokorb® in collaboration with AVI sets the standard for thermal break solutions. With exceptional load-bearing capabilities, our product provides a superior level of thermal insulation between building elements, contributing to the construction of low-energy buildings. TKM Thermokorb® can be used for concrete-to-concrete balconies, connecting unsupported cantilever balcony slabs as well as special solutions, e.g. for level changes, cantilever slab connections to walls and wall connections.

Installation cases with TKM standard ribs

Cantilever balcony slab – External wall with composite heat insulation system

The insulating body of the Thermokorb is located outside of the wall in this installation example and connects with the composite heat insulation system.

Cantilever balcony slab – External wall without composite heat insulation system

The insulating body of the Thermokorb is located within the wall. In this installation example, a precast concrete floor slab is set on the inside. The lower stirrup leg of the TKM/E rib is bent up to avoid a collision with the precast slab element.

Installation cases with TKM special ribs

Balcony with step-up level change

The insulating body of the Thermokorb is located outside of the wall in this installation example and connects with the composite heat insulation system.

Balcony with step-down down level change

The insulating body of the Thermokorb is located outside of the wall in this installation example and connects with the composite heat insulation system.
