The PERI self-climbing system ensured that the tower cores could be erected quickly and safely. The climbing system minimises fall and trip hazards by enabling the platforms to climb simultaneously on the inside and outside, thus increasing the level of safety for the construction site team. In addition, the powerful cylinder facilitates a swift climbing speed of just 20 minutes per floor, resulting in cost and time
savings.

TrIIIple, Vienna, Austria
Minimised shuttering times through digital monitoring of concrete strengthWith its usable floor space of around 70,000 m2, the TrIIIple is writing a new chapter in Viennese residential history. An impressive ensemble of three high-rise buildings was built on the banks of the Danube Canal between the city centre and the Grüner Prater recreation area. In addition to privately financed flats, the three buildings also feature micro-apartments for students and young professionals.
TrIIIple, Vienna, Austria
Thanks to the use of the PERI InSite Construction sensors, the temperature was measured at different points in the concrete and the data loaded directly into the ISC Web Application. This minimised the costly waiting times until the final curing of the concrete. The cloud service BIM 360° Field was also used for digital support on the construction site. The panorama renderings allowed an immersive walk-through of the PERI solution - long before the actual execution. In addition, this ensured consistent and continuous availability of all project data on the construction site.

“The tried and tested PERI systems, the overall solution and the technical planning service were the most suitable and cost-effective solution for the TrIIIple project. This made it possible to shorten the construction time by quite a bit. The professional approach to the planning and execution of the site and the cooperation with the PERI team was excellent despite the numerous challenges, such as just-in-time delivery and the tight spatial conditions.”
South Quay Plaza 4, London, UK
Complex core geometry on a 6-day cycleThe South Quay Plaza 4 project represents the second phase of construction of the South Quay Plaza residential development in London’s Canary Wharf financial district. At 56-storeys high, the new skyscraper will offer space for around 400 residential units when completed. Due to the excellent cooperation during the construction of the first high-rise in 2018, PERI systems were also used for the construction of the second building. For a high degree of cost-effectiveness, PERI engineers – wherever possible – incorporated the existing materials from the first construction phase into the second solution.
South Quay Plaza 4, London, UK
Due to the very confined space and limited storage area, just-in-time deliveries were crucial for the success of the project. To limit the amount of material required and simplify the assembly process, over 80 formwork elements were delivered to the construction site prefabricated and were then completed on site. PERI’s digital services were a great help in providing project support. For example, 3D models of the structure were created to visualise the climbing sequence, enable clash detection and identify spatial limitations in advance.

“For the planning and briefings, we used the digital 3D model from PERI. The result was great, as it allowed us to capture the detail and lifecycle of the PERI climbing formwork from erection to operation to the dismantling stage. The team at PERI were proactive in meeting our needs with engineered safety at the forefront of their solutions."
Tour Mirabeau, Marseille, France
Swift construction progress despite high wind loads and limited spaceOne of the tallest office buildings in the city was built directly on the Marseille coast. The 85 m high building has 21 floors of state-of-the-art, energy- efficient office space with views of the sea and the neighbouring city. PERI supported the three-year project by supplying a wide range of systems.
Tour Mirabeau, Marseille, France
The immediate proximity to the Mediterranean Sea not only meant that space was limited during the construction phase, but also led to special requirements in terms of safety. The high wind forces, for example, proved challenging. By using a PERI climbing protection panel for enclosure purposes, however, the workers were effectively protected from the high wind loads even at great heights and the possibility of falling objects was ruled out. A PERI rail climbing system used for the construction of the facade also ensured a high level of work safety, with the climbing unit being securely connected to the structure at all times via the rails.

“The technically complex Tour Mirabeau was constructed in an environment that was difficult to access. The proximity, responsiveness and expertise of the PERI engineering team enabled us to carry out the work without any issues – and using the systems that were best suited to the task. By using PERI systems, all safety aspects could be complied with and swift construction progress achieved.”
Y-Towers, Amsterdam, Netherlands
Working safely on an iconic towers despite wind and height challengesThe construction of the Y-Towers has seen the arrival of a new residential and hotel complex in the modern residential district of Overhoeks, which is located on the banks of the river IJ in the centre of Amsterdam. As part of the iconic skyline, the two buildings, 102 m and 110 m high, not only add aesthetic value but also offer numerous leisure opportunities for visitors.
Y-Towers, Amsterdam, Netherlands
PERI made its mark with system-integrated safety solutions for the complex construction of the two Y-Towers in Amsterdam. The building cores were constructed with the help of an economical PERI system combination. Enormous wind loads were a particular challenge here, which is why both buildings were equipped with a PERI climbing protection panel. This allowed safe working at great heights and minimized the risk of falling parts. In addition, the PERI self-climbing system allowed the concrete distributors to be easily moved upwards - without the use of a crane.

“For this large and complex project in the centre of Amsterdam, we decided to work with the leading supplier in the formwork industry: PERI. We knew PERI from projects in Italy and were familiar with the construction systems and working methods. In a project of this magnitude, it is important that the material is always available at short notice. Because PERI has a stockyard nearby with an enormous range of different construction systems, we were not short of anything. PERI is a reliable partner for us in such complex projects.”
The JACX, New York, USA
Two floors per weekThe JACX consists of a five-story base building centered on a 10, 000 m² park. The park is enclosed by two nearly identical towers. When completed, these provide each approximately 570,000 m² of usable space in Long Island City.
The JACX, New York, USA
PERI engineers developed a project-specific concept for the economical execution of the building despite the low crane availability and tight construction schedule. When climbing the two high-rise cores attached to the sides of the building, it was necessary to meet the required fair-faced concrete requirements. A crane was not needed due to the PERI self-climbing formwork used. The tight climbing schedule of two floors per week could be maintained - although only one crane was available during the work.

"Without PERI, we would not have been able to meet our schedule of two floors per week. The independence of the formwork systems minimized the need for the site's only crane. The size and quality of the concreting sections achieved exceeded our expectations."
Salesforce Tower, Chicago (IL), USA
Versatile formwork solution for demanding spatial conditionsSalesforce Tower Chicago is the final building to be completed at Wolf Point Plaza, a three-phase project in the heart of the city centre. The 58-storey building towers over the city from its unique location on the banks of the Chicago River and offers ample space for offices and retail outlets. The project team had to deal with the challenges of limited access to and from the site on the main road, as well as cramped conditions.
Salesforce Tower, Chicago (IL), USA
The inherent lack of space influenced all decisions made before and during the project. A high degree of logistical coordination, meticulous advance planning and just-in-time delivery of all materials were absolutely essential for successful completion of the project. The building consists of steel structures and a massive, four-cell vertical concrete core that supports the tower. The crane had to be positioned within the core of the building because of the combination of concrete and steel. This meant that the formwork solution had to be adaptable and able to climb without the need for a crane.

Safety was the top priority during the work. To protect the construction site team from wind and weather, a PERI climbing protection panel was therefore used during the shell construction phase. In addition, the team decided to use the RCS MAX Rail Climbing System for the first time in the Netherlands, a system which features synchronous climbing of all platforms. Falling edges could thus be avoided and safety increased. In addition, components of the PERI UP Scaffolding Kit ensured safe working at various points of the project in the form of scaffolding and stair towers.
