The Project
Impressions from the project process
For construction of the emergency parking bays, the formwork carriage was designed with a width of 14.30 m. Moving the carriage to the next bay through the smaller-sized standard cross-section, required a reduction in the maximum external dimensions.
For moving the carriage to the next emergency bay, PERI developed an accurately-defined working sequence by which the formwork segments could be hydraulically folded and lowered.
Moving through the reduced standard cross-section resulted in lowering the formwork carriage construction by more than 1 m and folding up at the sides for a width of around 10 m.
The electric drive unit provided a fast and easy to operate forward movement of the tunnel formwork carriage.

At the beginning, we were rather sceptical concerning the filigree structure. Our trust has been growing by the day – now we are absolutely thrilled. The PERI formwork carriage is extremely stable and very suitable for our daily work, it fulfils all requirements of our jobsite.
