Mercedes-Benz Center in Milan, Italy
Rentable standard elements as special formwork
for high quality and safety in the realisation
Construction of the largest southern European Mercedes Benz sales centre in Milan will be completed after only a 21-month building period. For the concrete frame work, only twelve months have been allotted to the experienced Züblin construction team. In autumn 2007, the building complex will be officially handed over to the car manufacturer ready for occupancy.
The ground plan dimensions of the Italian Mercedes Benz centre measure a massive 183 by 126 metres. Spread across three upper floors, it features generously-sized showrooms which are arranged around the central brand gallery – a conically-shaped tower. A multi-functional event area offers sufficient space for up to 2,000 people. Customer service, a workshop and spare parts storage can be found on the west side. The basement has been designed for use as underground parking, a technical facility and car preparation.
With its broad range of equipment and system programmes, formwork and scaffolding manufacturer, PERI, was in a position to provide the contractors with the optimal solution for each of the various tasks. Thus, in spite of the extremely short construction schedule, high quality of workmanship as well as all safety requirements can be achieved efficiently and cost-effectively.

“I´m surprised just how easy it is to construct these curved walls with the RUNDFLEX system - with a superb finish. With the templates provided by PERI, this was no problem whatsoever. The PERI 3D formwork fitted perfectly and could be put together without any effort. The client and safety inspectors were very satisfied that safety regulations were maintained throughout.”
