The care farm opened its doors in 2007 and offers day programs and housing for twelve young people between 15 and 25. Generally, these are young people with a mental handicap or with an autism spectrum disorder.
Fast building pace
As we have applied prefab foundation elements, the prefab foundation beams have been placed within one morning. The same afternoon, we have lifted the two prefab basements into the construction and mounted them. As all elements are being mounted with a mobile crane, the construction activities are physically light in the event of building with prefab elements.
Heavy loads
Vroom has never placed basements this huge before. These heavy loads weigh 14,1 and 19,4 tons. The residence’s basement measures 4,4 x 2,6 x 2,5 m as the barn’s basement measures 5,6 x 3,2 x 2,5 m.
Intermediate floors
Following our first-time placing process of doorways and balconies, for this project, we are also working at height. The first and second intermediate floors will be placed in the course of this year. They will include hollow-core slabs that will be delivered as prefab elements.
