Project background

A large-scale project at the port of Lübeck

Skandinavienkai in Lübeck is the largest ferry port on the Baltic. In 2019, the Lübeck Port Authority (LPA) commissioned construction of a 300 m long, 120 m wide and 15 m high logistics hall. The bearing system and the roof and wall panels had to be made of timber. This required a total of:

31 double tapered beams with a length of approx. 28 m
31 fish-bellied girders with a length of approx. 43 m
31 fish-bellied girders with a length of approx. 48 m
16 parallel beams with a length of approx. 48 m
Approx. 18,000 metres of bracing and tension bars

Special transport of a 48 m girders to Lübeck

Delivery

Logistics from WIEHAG

WIEHAG supplied the components for the roof supporting structure and the wall construction. Numerous special transports and extra-long transports were required for this purpose:

32 special transports and 28 standard transports or extra-long transports up to 24 metres for the roof structure
5 extra-long transports up to 22 metres for the wall construction

A large-scale project

The logistics hall on the Skandinavienkai was above all a logistical challenge: Bringing the support structure for a 36,000 m² hall to northern Germany was only possible with good planning.
