The invention relates to a mast element, in particular a leader element, for a construction machine, with an elongate hollow mast profile which, at a front side, is provided along a mast longitudinal direction with two guide strips through which a linear guide for a mast carriage is formed along the front side. According to the invention, provision is made that at least one guide strip is designed as part of a guide profile on which at least one connection web is formed in one piece with the guide strip, which connection web extends away from the guide strip, and that, in order to form the hollow mast profile, elongate wall elements are provided which, together with the at least one connection web, form the hollow mast profile and enclose an inner cavity of the mast profile.

The invention relates to a civil engineering machine with a undercarriage comprising a track chassis, a superstructure mounted on the undercarriage, so as to be rotatable about a vertical axis of rotation, a leader with a linear guide along which a work carriage with a construction work implement is displaceably mounted, and an articulation mechanism by means of which the leader is adjustably mounted on the superstructure. According to the invention it is provided that the articulation mechanism comprises a telescopic arm by means of which a distance of the leader relative to the superstructure can be adjusted.

The Invention relates to a mast element, in particular leader element, for a construction machine, with an elongate, hollow mast profile, which is approximately rectangular in cross section and comprises a linear guide for a mast carriage on its outer side along a longitudinal direction of the mast. In addition, according to the invention, at least one diagonal reinforcement element extends within the mast profile along the longitudinal direction of the mast, which is arranged at an oblique angle to the sides of the approximately rectangular mast profile.
