Apartment building in Luxembourg City — XXL glazing on the top storey
Replacing an XXL insulating unit on the top storey of an apartment building in Luxembourg City — telescopic crane with a jib extension, a road closure, a Saturday call-out.
The challenge
The starting point on site
An apartment building in Luxembourg City needed a very large insulating unit replaced on the top storey, in a position that is hard to reach from the street. The work was scheduled for a Saturday so the public road could be closed temporarily for the crane, in coordination with the authorities and our technical partners.
