Westin Midfield Terminal, Detroit, MI, USA
Modular Tables Reduce Crane Time
In order to compensate travallers from the new Northwest Airlines terminal, a Westin Hotel was constructed. This would alleviate the hastle of accessing the terminal with the need of shuttle or rental car.
The project consisted of eight post tensioned and three typical slabs.
The slabs ranged from 18,000 sqft (1,762 m²) to 42,000 sqft (3,902 m²). Therefore PERI supplied a carefully laid out combination of slab forming systems including: SKYDECK, UNIPORTAL and MULTIFLEX. The combination of these systems proved to be efficient and quick in providing a superior finish.
With an overall size of 300 sqft (27.9 m²), the UNIPORTAL tables were much larger than conventional shoring tables thereby cutting down crane time. Using the MULTIPROP as single props or in combination with MRK Frames as towers, allowed the client to set and strip with ease and accuracy – independent of the varying slab heights.
