I rate the PERI contribution very highly. All requirements were completely fulfilled and the tight construction schedule was also maintained. In addition to the fast shuttering and moving times with MAXIMO and SKYDECK, I would like to especially praise the on-site project support along with the flexible, operative and process-oriented cooperation with the PERI engineers.
