As a strategic partner of construction company Heembouw, Pelecon calculated and drew the structure for Hordijk Verpakkingen’s new premises. The new building is located directly opposite the existing site on Daalderweg in Zaandam. The steel-built hall has a surface area of 22,500 m2, the office section comprises 1,300 m2.

"For this project, we calculated and drew the entire structure, both the foundation and the superstructure made of steel," says Piet Peters, Consultant at Pelecon. "Based on this, the steel suppliers and the supplier of the hollow core slabs made their own working drawings and laying plans. We did work out the pile plan and the foundation in full. Surely a special feature of the project is the office with the large canopy. For that, we designed the structure in consultation with the architect with a very individual character."

Piet continues, "large, black braces were installed to create that overhang. "Another striking aspect is the structural distinction made in the industrial hall, between the production part and the distribution part. The columns in the production part are twice as far apart as those in the distribution part."

"In this way, we are building as economically and therefore as sustainably as possible, which is obviously desirable as a sustainable building like this."
