„ Apart from the works in Qatar in great heat and the tense project situation, above all the extreme flexibility required in this project was a big challenge. Thanks to a very dedicated project team and a perfectly organized back office we were able to successfully conclude this project with a lot of sweat and high commitment. “

The objective was measurement and monitoring of the structural behaviour during construction and the examination of the planning assumptions.
