Geda units get to work in Golden City

With a population of more than 1.3 million, Prague is Czechia’s most highly populated city. The high demand for living space means that the new apartments in “Rezidence Nuselsky Pivovar” must be completed in a timely manner.

The new apartments are part of the “Nusle Brewery” project and offer a wide selection of apartments, from studios and family apartments to lavish penthouses with terraces. The modern furnishings and high quality materials used in their construction give the apartments an exclusive touch. All the buildings in the complex form an enclosed inner courtyard. This is a green parking area and is also intended to be a space for residents to meet and relax. The location between the Vinohrady and Nusle neighbourhoods also combines a quiet environment in close proximity to the city. Moreover, all the important shops are within walking distance, and the center of Prague is just a short tram ride away.

The five GEDA 1500 Z/ZP transport platforms were installed at a height of 34 metres and serve 15 floors. They are fitted with GEDA Comfort doors to ensure smoothness and safety when moving from the platform to the scaffolding. With a platform size of 1.45 m x 3.3 m and a load capacity of 2,000 kg, “the GEDA 1500 Z/ZP BS platform is ideally suited for the transport of heavy materials. But workers can also be brought to where they need to be without any problems because the GEDA 1500 Z/ZP can carry up to seven people,” the company said.

Small lift – big impact

With a load capacity of 120 kg and a speed of up to 60 m/min, the GEDA Maxi 120 S is “the ideal thing to help façade builders,” according to Geda. On the Prague construction site, the traction lift also serves façade workers well when transporting façade panels and insulation. Like the GEDA 1500 Z/ZP transport platforms, the GEDA Maxi 120 S has been installed at a height of 34 m. However, it can go to up to 70 m at full capacity. A lifting speed of 20 m/min can be selected when transporting sensitive materials as well.
