Information letter #7 Heineken Hoek: stemp frames and sheet piles
Dear businesses and residents,
In this seventh information letter, we would like to let you know about the current situation, what work will be carried out in the coming period, and how this might affect you.
Work performed
- The ground floor has been poured;
- The basement walls have been poured;
- We placed the prefabricated basement walls;
- We assembled the supporting construction for the ground floor.
Removing the stemp frames and burning down the sheet piles
On Thursday September 29, we will start with removing the stemp frames from the construction pit. This is a construction of mainly horizontal stemps that ensures the walls of the construction pit don’t collapse under the pressure of the soil or water outside the construction pit.
From Tuesday October 4 we will start burning down the sheet piling. Welders will burn them down at the correct height. This can cause some nuisance.
Activities in the coming period
As soon as the ground floor has hardened sufficiently, we will start with placing the construction of the ground floor in the week of October 3rd. The construction contains the prefabricated walls and sand-lime brick blocks. During these activities there will be various transports and lifting movements.
Structural work phase
We are now working hard at the shell of the building. As always, will do our utmost to keep disruption to a minimum. For example, large vehicles will load and unload inside the construction fences whenever possible.
Considerate constructors
We realise that we are guests in your area, and we will try to prevent any nuisance as much as possible and to keep it to a minimum. As a construction company, we are affiliated with the Stichting Bewuste Bouwers (Considerate Constructors Foundation). We work according to its code of conduct, in which limiting nuisance to the environment is paramount.
Our working hours
According to the building permits, work is allowed from Monday to Friday between 07:00 and 16:00. Materials and equipment may be supplied to and removed from the construction site between 07:00 and 12:00. Occasionally, it is possible that we will have to work outside the permitted times. We will let you know if this is the case and it concerns
work that might cause a nuisance.
