One of the key conditions for this project was the ability to provision a large quantity of equipment – 810 tonnes – within the established timeline. The client chose ULMA systems for their load-bearing capacity and efficiency in size, making it possible to move freely throughout the jobsite without interference.

Twelve MK Shoring Towers were employed to support the eight ceiling structures weighing 550 tonnes each. Towers were configured with four or eight feet and a maximum height of 26 m, depending on the load to be borne.

The tower were first assembled into modules on the ground, which were later lifted into place and fitted vertically by crane. Each tower is equipped with  an  utterly  safe  infrastructure for vertical transit, stairways, and working platforms with handrails that guarantee compliance with all applicable safety regulations
