Traditional building given an entirely new face.
The construction site had all difficulties of inner-city construction, such as extremely restricted spatial conditions for delivery and material storage or the use of a crane, in store. Despite this, carcass work could be completed on schedule. To secure the adjacent buildings, the public traffic areas and the access roads and storage areas, a contiguous CFA pile wall was installed and reinforced by means of ring-shaped in-situ concrete cover constructions supported by auxiliary piles. Due to aquiferous subsoil layers as well as the Alserbach River which runs below Lazarettgasse, the up-to-1.2-m-thick foundation plate as well as the basement’s exterior walls were executed in accordance with the regulations of white tubs.
What ultimately counts in the construction business is successfully completed projects. PORR has many of these.
