Requirements

Time was an important factor. During the ongoing operation of the hotel, the construction work had to be carried out quickly. According to the architect's drawings, wedi created approval drawings and then the elements were made to measure partly from building boards and bent, partly from the full foam cut. The relaxation tube alone consists of 27 individual parts, which only had to be glued together and fused or plastered on site.

It was a combination of the wedi material and the high degree of prefabrication that made it possible to meet the specified time frame of only three months of conversion time on time. Had the elements been worked on at the construction site to make them resistant to moisture, steam and water, and had to build all forms on site by hand, not only the time schedule but also the cost schedule would have been out of hand.
