Jean-Francois Delmas
Senior Construction Manager

The Hotel Meliá itself is a real technical challenge whilst the site surroundings also provide severe restrictions. The PERI climbing formwork solution, based on the RCS system, fully meets our requirements - both in terms of safety as well as use.

PERI solution

  • Project-specific solution with RCS system components
  • Four different protection panel concepts, e.g. with special slab shoes or an FTF solution as assembly support for the precast parapets
