Residential buildings in Tuczno — delivered in erection order

In Tuczno, in the Inowrocław district, we erected the structure of a group of repeating apartment buildings. Our scope covered load-bearing external and internal walls, floor slabs and precast balcony slabs.

On a site like this, most of it is decided at a stage that rarely gets mentioned: loading at the plant. The elements travel on low-loaders, racked in exactly the order in which they will go onto the building. The wall taken off the trailer first is the first one on the hook. That way no storage yard appears on site — no hardstanding to build, no second lift to reposition elements, no hunting for space for a dozen walls waiting their turn.

It mattered here in particular, because the buildings stand on open ground by the fields, where the site itself is built along with them and every metre of hardened road is a separate cost. The crane stays in one position, trailers pull up to it on schedule, and each element goes from transport straight to its final place.

The repetition of the buildings feeds directly into this. The same wall type returns in the next building of the group, so the sequence agreed once applies to all of them, and after the first building the erection crew knows the layout without opening the drawing. Inside a building it works the same way: the apartment layout does not change, so the set for the second floor mirrors the first.

The rhythm only breaks when a delivery arrives in a different order than the erection plan assumes — then the crane waits, or elements have to be set down and lifted a second time. That is why the order on the trailer is fixed together with the schedule, before the first element leaves the plant.

The balconies were set in the same crane cycle as the walls and slabs. The propping stays under the slab until the grout of the joint with the floor reaches strength.
