To increase their pulp production capacity, ZS needed to install two more boilers. Therefore, the boiler building (built in 2003) had to be extended to fit in the two additional boilers. In the original design (completed by our office) the extension of the building was already concidered and the foundations for the extension were built in 2003. The steel structure had to be erected free-standing seperate from the building. The new gable wall had to be built on pile foundations to avoid differential settlement.

General design, application process for building permit, construction planning, structural design incl. formwork and reinforcement drawings, steel construction drawings.

Completion: End 2005
Construction costs: 3.2 m €

The existing production building, built in the 1940s, had to be raised from 12m to 23m in height for the expansion of the production line. The plant kept producing during construction and the production process could not be interupted. First the building was raised before the existing roof was taken off.

Static calculations, manage tendering process, steel construction drawings.

Completion: Mid 2006
Construction costs: 1.1 m € (Contr.)

The existing PVC plant had to be extended. It was necessary to obtain the production line connected to the existing plant units.
