Trump International Hotel & Tower

Trump International Hotel & Tower, Chicago, USA - With a height of 415 m, the Trump International Hotel and Tower on the Chicago River is a very impressive skyscraper.
Trump International Hotel & Tower, Chicago, USA - The floor plan for this impressive building complex tapers gradually in four steps as it rises majestically in the air: at heights of 65 m, 121 m, 201 m and 338 m.
Trump International Hotel & Tower, Chicago, USA - During the construction of the massive reinforced concrete columns, ACS platforms also served as anti-fall protection at the slab edges.
Trump International Hotel & Tower, Chicago, USA - For the support construction of the lower floors, 16,900 MULTIPROP 16,900 aluminium props and 2,600 PEP steel props were used at the same time.
Trump International Hotel & Tower, Chicago, USA - The RCS climbing protection panel secured site personnel against falling at all times and also provided reliable protection against strong winds at great heights.
Trump International Hotel & Tower, Chicago, USA - The massive reinforced concrete columns on the north and south sides were quickly realized with the ACS self-climbing system and VARIO wall formwork - and without a crane.

All the systems on site are easy to use and adapt quickly to the changing conditions of this large project. The engineering and logistical support we receive from PERI is important to our success.

PERI solution

  • high levels of material usage: 20,000 MULTIPROP and PEP steel props
  • SKYDECK for early striking after just 2 days
  • ACS self-climbing system for massive reinforced concrete columns and protection against falling on slab edges
  • RCS climbing protection panel with mobile self-climbing devices
