GEDA 1500 Z/ZP in use on Northern Swabia's biggest construction site

This is currently the largest building project in Northern Swabia. For over a year Eurocopter has been building a new state-of-the-art Development Center at Donauwörth. The four-storey complex is being constructed over a total ground area of 30,000 square metres.

Combined competence and expertise from the outset

This large construction site is hugely important for the region as the new Development Center is set to employ about 900 people in the future.
The objective is to concentrate all the core competence and expertise for the development, production and support of helicopters in one location and secure it for the long term. Therefore the development capacities still located at the Ottobrunn site will be integrated into the new building. Of crucial importance in the project planning from the outset was the environmentally-friendly and innovative construction.
The Development Center consists of one four-storey main building with four individual office wings branching off on both the left and the right. In total the complex is 126.5 metres long, 97.5 metres wide and 22 metres high.

Successful “neighbourly assistance”

There are huge challenges for all the companies involved in a construction site of this magnitude.
One example of this was the selection of the appropriate height access technology where the construction companies responsible for this decided upon the long-standing experience and competence of the company GEDA-Dechentreiter GmbH & Co.KG located in Asbach Bäumenheim only 6 km away.

Two GEDA 500 Z/ZP transport platforms are being used to guarantee the safe and effective transportation of materials and people along the four-storey building. The Munich-based company Fischbacher, a long-standing GEDA partner, has rented the two devices to the construction companies involved.
