Construction

We are doing the other side of the underground parking wall, which includes the staircase to access the parking from inside the building. This is the last part of the structural work for the underground parking of the right part of Amadeo. In a few days, we will move the work to the left part.

Casting and reinforcement

As for the other side, we prepared the wooden cast and the reinforcement for making the armed concrete walls. The staircase being on this side, the walls and entrance door was cast as well.

Deploying the concrete pump

This time we caught the concrete pump before it got deployed. So here the installation of the pump in pictures. First the truck is put on its 4 supportive hydraulic legs. Then the pump's arm is deployed in steps until full extension.

Pouring concrete

This time, workers made a very smart and practical wooden funnel to guide concrete into the wooden cast of the wall. We may miss stuff, sometimes in Serbia, but we don't miss ingeniosity. As usual, we call up MARMIL inženjering for the concrete. Pouring is done in 2 passes.
