Although this is the first time that we have worked with PERI systems, we were in a position to meet the architect's high demands. We are also more than satisfied with the support from PERI and the achieved results.

PERI solution

  • preproduction of the formwork units VARIO GT 24 with precisely positioned ties and blank cones
  • columns constructed in one pour for the complete height of 11.75 m with VARIO GT 24
  • transfer of the high concrete pressure also with heights of 11.75 m
  • PERI RCS and HD 200 for secure load distribution
