Structure project
Kuban i Salak pracownia konstrukcji |
||
|
Project of foundations consisting of metal frame weighted with concrete blocks, including the pipe inside the palm; all static calculations, drawings and technical edition of the project. The company prepared also projects which allowed to order certain elements of the foundation. They didn’t charge a penny. We have been cooperating for a year. |

|
Electric works
RS System |
||
|
Electric works mean so called ‘grounding of a palm’. In case the palm was under high voltage when touching tram wires or struck by lightning, metal elements had to be linked and ‘railed’, that means linked to the railway. RS System made an electric link project and offered to realise it for free. Warsaw Tramlink will ‘rail’ the palm. |
|
|
International shipping of the palm |
||
|
International transport of the palm from Pecoff Nursery Brothers to de Gaulle circle directly. Thanks to Move One we found a ship in chaos caused by dockers’ strike, get through customs clearance and received the trunk at the construction site – de Gaulle circle – on specified day (night). We got big discount. |
