WEEK 25, June 15– 19.
Natrium
In week 25, the blasting focuses on the centre of the area, preparing a space for a room in the cellar of the building as well as a foundation for the construction crane. The groundwork has now reached the north part of the area. Piping for sewage, drainage and electricity needs to be placed under the base slab, involving several contractors.
The casting team continue with the culvert and a final casting of a wall on Wednesday.
Inside Medicinarelängan, the team continues to empty rooms on the first floor. On the second floor, demolition work continues and on the third floor, dismantling of the current electricity is in focus.
The contractor for electricity is installing consoles and cable ladders along the façade of the buildings Farmakologi höghus and a part of Nya Forsken. Drilling in order to attach these to the brick wall could mean disturbances for those close to the activity. Specific hours for drilling will be coordinated with the maintenance organisation of the property owner and communicated to the concerned groups.
