ULMA Solution
Since it is the second largest shopping mall in Spain, it required a certain amount of material, simultaneously, an efficient supply, and a coordination of tasks. For this reason, ULMA established a materials rotation system and on-site technical advice that facilitated its fast and error-free set-up.
For the 450,000 m2 slab execution, in accordance with the project's characteristics, a combination of VR Tables and RAPID formwork over a shoring system, at considerable heights, and aluminum ALUPROP and EP props, at intermediate heights, were used.These systems provided high profitability, as they were assembled at the initial phase of construction and were transferred, without being disassembled, from one area to another within the site. For the formwork of the concrete walls and columns, the modular ORMA system was used.
