I have already been working with PERI systems for many years and I am convinced that the ACS Climbing System and the VARIO Wall Formwork are the optimum solution. ACS enabled us to reduce the build time. In my opinion PERI offers the best formwork systems in terms of technology.

PERI oplossing

  • climbing formwork solution for pylons without crane support with concreting cycle heights of 4 m
  • climbing platforms positioned lengthwise with mobile formwork elements on rollers for the front ends
  • VARIOKIT system consoles for concreting the carriageway slab with working platforms of a total length of 600 m
