Project description:

Systemhandling project.

Kist Ång is a housing estate made up of apartment buildings and a car park.

Lots of different shops are intended to be located on the lower floors, whereas the upper floors will contain 228 privately-owned apartments and apartments for rent facing the main road, as well as 238 student apartments facing smaller streets. A new home will be provided for a total of 1,300 people. The object is divided into two parts – East and West. The western part is built from 19,380m² of HCS, 1,140m² of solid slabs and 21,840m² of prefabricated reinforced concrete walls. The eastern section is built from 15 300m² of HCS, 1,570m² of solid slabs and 20,600m² of prefabricated reinforced concrete walls. The work on this project was interesting because of the requirement not to reduce the number of parking spaces in the basement, thus creating a complex structural scheme.
