International projects
PERI solutions for the cultures of the worldAround the world, many different cultural buildings have been constructed with the help of customised PERI solutions. Thanks to our experts, complex geometries and requirements have been realised with the highest possible quality and efficiency.
Deepspot, Mszczonów, Poland
With a depth of up to 45.50 metres, the Deepspot diving facility near the Polish capital Warsaw is one of the deepest diving pools in the world. This required many geometrically and technologically complex reinforced concrete elements while at the same time ensuring a high level of safety for the personnel. PERI engineers developed a customised solution which took into account both the structural feasibility and the safety of the site personnel. As a reliable partner, PERI was able to fulfil all the requirements of this extraordinary project to the full satisfaction of the customer.

The Reach Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, Washington, D.C., USA
Concrete was the focus of the extension to the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. The exposed concrete with various panel patterns and the architecturally sophisticated design with many curves posed a major challenge. PERI developed a 3D model for the realisation of the Skylight Pavilion, which is one of the highlights of the project with its 12.90 m high slabs and the twisted wall. This model provided a virtual representation of the wall and laid the foundation for the creation of project-specific customised formwork.

Victoria & Albert Museum, Dundee, Great Britain
Japanese star architect Kengo Kuma was inspired by the Scottish coastal formation for the extravagant shape of the Victoria & Albert Museum. The museum embodies the cliffs of the surrounding area, the dark exposed concrete is reminiscent of sedimentary rock. PERI supported the project with free-form formwork and shoring solutions for the exterior walls. The combination of VARIO GT 24 panels and VARIOKIT components adapted perfectly to the artistic twists and turns of the building structure.
Indoor Tennis Centre Kuwait University, Al-Shadadiya, Kuwait
The sports centre at Kuwait University is particularly impressive due to its dome-shaped roof in the Islamic tradition. PERI planned and supplied a project-specific solution consisting of a combination of different formwork and shoring systems. In order to realise the complex shape, PERI also supported the planning of the 3D model. The well thought-out planning and customised formwork enabled efficient execution of the architecturally sophisticated dome-shaped building.

Museum of the Polish Army, Warsaw, Poland
A museum was built on the historic site of the Warsaw Citadel to present the history of the Polish army. The special feature of the building is the red, patterned exposed concrete which required an extremely well thought-out realisation. PERI was able to realise this high requirement with a customised and at the same time cost-efficient formwork solution. Thanks to many years of experience, a clever technological concept and high-quality pre-assembly, the cultural building could be realised efficiently.
Mahatma Mandir, Gandhinagar, India
The Mahatma Mandir in Gandhinagar in the Indian state of Gujarat is a congress and event centre, but also a memorial to Mahatma Gandhi. The appearance of the almost 14-hectare site is characterised by two pylons that are visible from afar and tower over the entire complex. These hold the suspension cables of a suspension bridge that spans a busy road and connects the congress centre in the east with the museum in the west.
Bee'ah Headquarters, Sharjah, United Arab Emirates
A futuristic building with a dune look was constructed in Sharjah for the newly built headquarters of the award-winning company Bee'ah. The centrepiece of the building is a concrete dome with high exposed concrete requirements, which was created with the help of PERI systems. The curved walls of the building were also subject to the highest quality requirements. PERI's many years of expertise in complex formwork projects as well as the efficient cooperation with the site team led to a successful project result.
