The Project
Impressions from the project process
The almost 100 m long Libeskind-designed structure features a 30-metre high wedge tip made of glass and steel.
VARIO GT 24 girder wall formwork served as the formwork system for constructing the up to 40° inclined walls of the complicated building floor plan.
HD 200 heavy-duty props and PERI UP modular scaffold system: a cost-effective shoring concept for transferring high loads at great heights.
Due to static reasons, all walls and slabs had to be fully supported until construction of the concrete frame had been completed using system components taken from the PERI portfolio.

We decided in favour of PERI because of the flexibility of the formwork systems and the know-how regarding special solutions. The cooperation was great, the formwork planning was perfect and the deliveries always arrived according to schedule. Thus we were able to jointly master this impressive project with its extraordinary requirements concerning shape and surface quality.
