    Major technical calculations had to be carried out to construct the complex apex of the building. All framework conditions had to be considered – from wind and weather to the safety of the workers on the scaffolding and passers-by.
    The ACS Self-Climbing System was used for the first time in Denmark for the Lighthouse 2.0, having already proven its worth in numerous construction projects worldwide.
    The rail-guided climbing formwork scored points with its hydraulic drive, large climbing units, high lifting force and rapid processes, which meant that a concreting cycle of just one week per storey could be achieved.

    Award for Denmark’s tallest residential building

    The “Lighthouse 2.0” construction project has created new living space with 381 new flats in the purpose-built district of “Aarhus Ø”, not far from the centre of the city of the same name. With its impressive height of 142 metres, the building has been the tallest residential building in Denmark since its completion in 2022. The top floors are home to a restaurant and a roof terrace that is open to the public – with fantastic views of the harbour, the sea and the city. The project has now received an award for the “Best Tall Building” in the “100 to 199 metres” category from non-profit organisation, the “Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat” (CTBUH).

    The ACS Core 400 System is versatile and can be used with VARIO GT 24 Girder Wall Formwork and MAXIMO Panel Formwork systems.
    The ACS Core 400 system was chosen for its ability to lift the formwork and working platforms of the elevator and stair core between floors without requiring the tower crane and with minimal labour.
    PERI engineers designed the core system to switch efficiently from low-rise to high-rise core geometry without rebuilding the whole system.

    During the construction of the new faculty at the Mohammed VI Polytechnic University in Morocco, an optimally coordinated PERI formwork and scaffolding solution allowed construction to be completed within a nine-month period, while maintaining high safety standards.
    With the help of ALPHADECK Slab Formwork, it proved possible to form around 120,000 m2 of slab in just nine months.
    The low weight of the ALPHADECK panels and the possibility of early striking using the drophead system reduced the material quantities required on site and minimised the time required for work processes.
