Our role is to provide formwork and<br />

reinforcement shop drawings first to the<br />

proofer for verification and then directly<br />

to the construction site.<br />

The main challenge is the high speed of<br />

changes (change in the construction<br />

type, architectural plans or MEP systems).<br />

DESIGNING CONCRETE<br />

STRUCTURES<br />

One of the peculiarities of this project is<br />

the high groundwater level. In<br />

collaboration with other structural teams<br />

taking part in the project, our structural<br />

engineers implemented a solution for a<br />

waterproofed connection of the existing<br />

building concrete structure to the new.<br />

The solution for the construction of a<br />

waterproof concrete foundation slab was<br />

implemented in the project. The problem<br />

solved there was a high heat release<br />

during the hardening process that could<br />

cause concrete cracking in large areas.<br />

Also, based on the preliminary design and<br />

calculations provided by Hellmich, our<br />

structural team developed the Vierendeel<br />

beam for eight meters-long cantilever.<br />

The main challenge in this project is<br />

the high speed of changes<br />

An additional level of complexity was<br />

added by the fact that construction<br />

started before the design phase was<br />

finished. That is why, all the changes that<br />

are happening, are important to<br />

implement and communicate with other<br />

participants as soon as possible.<br />

Apart from the fast velocity of work<br />

demanded, we have structural puzzles to<br />

solve in this project.<br />
