The partially transparent barracks fit the firefighters like a glove. Moreover, from the circular concrete foundation to the roof, the building is sustainably designed and built.
Together with architect RoosRos Architecten and contractor BMN De Klerk we formed the construction team of the new fire station of Papendrecht. An intensive period of designing resulted in the start of construction at the end of August 2020. The building is located on the same site right next to the municipal yard that was also designed by us.

Right next to Oisterwijk’s train station is the old Leesten factory. This has been expanded with a future-proof, smart and sustainable business building. Meanwhile, the first tenants have moved into the full-service office units. Next to and connected to the existing Leesten factory, which is already serving as a business building, a dynamic working environment has been created on three floors with many shared facilities.

Surely this was a gem of an assignment to work on. Above the Rituals, on the corner of Kleiweg – Turfweg in Gouda, five homes were completed in December 2020. The renovation of this old building in the city centre started with a survey. The upper floors of the property had not been used for the last 30 years and were poorly maintained, making them dilapidated. The owner very much wanted to know whether a combination of shopping and living could be realised. Pelecon calculated all the existing structures and made a structural calculation for the renewed structure.

Because Rotterdam The Hague Airport’s old 1970 departure hall was outdated and becoming too small, a need arose for a new terminal. A terminal with a much larger capacity, but which had to fit in well with the character and image of the airport. Not a megalomaniac anonymous building, but a pleasant building with plenty of daylight, designed to make passengers feel comfortable. A sustainable building too, including a mossedum roof.

Green Mountains Logistics Park consists of four warehouses and is an immense project on the former Groenland site near the Aalsmeer runway at Schiphol Airport. The first three warehouses have been officially completed and are in use. The fourth warehouse is wind and watertight, except for the shop floor. Because the tenant did not sign until the warehouse was ready, it is now being rebuilt to meet all the requirements of this new user.

The number of orders is increasing, while the volume of orders is decreasing. A fully mechanised bin warehouse is a good solution for this, thought CB (formerly Centraal Broekhuis). They asked Denc and Pelecon to help think about the construction of the new high bay warehouse. We made all the main calculations, plan model and construction drawings.

Albert Heijn inaugurated its seventh Home Shop Center (HSC) in Bleiswijk exactly one week ago today, on 24 September. Nice to know that we also provided constructive support for Albert Heijn’s 5th HSC, which is in Amsterdam.
The new distribution centre has an area of 20,000 m² and will process 40,000 orders per week. Everything you can’t see about this building is what Pelecon has been working on. Partner at Pelecon: Mack Stolwijk talks about this great development.

For energy facilities, the roofs will be used to install solar panels.
