WEEK 21, May 18 – 22.
Lundberg laboratory – reconstruction on the second floor
Reconstruction work on the second floor is completed. However furnishings and installations remain, activities that are not considered to cause any significant disturbances. The reporting from this project ends here.
Natrium
The time has come to set up the first construction crane for the coming casting for Natrium. The crane, with a reach of 45 metres is to be put in place next to the EBM media central. The next crane will arrive after vacation and be mounted in the centre of the area. Both cranes are steered by a remote control, allowing the operator to stay on the ground.
Thursday in week 21 is Ascension Day, hence there will only be one blast, in the area close to Medicinarelängan on Tuesday 12.30 with 15.00 as reserve time.
In the new project office (port cabins) interior furnishings are ongoing as well as work on some stairs and handrails in the exterior.
Inside Medicinarelängan the demolition work on second and third floor proceeds. Ceiling, gypsum boards and glass are removed. The temporary wall that has been built will remain throughout most of the reconstruction. It aims at minimizing the disturbances in terms of noise and dust.
