description: 

For the new fashion boutique "Föger" in Telfs, in Austria, a pyramid was poured with in-situ concrete and reinforced by 800 kg armoring steel. The dense reinforcement and inclinations of the construction posed a great challenge, in order to uniformly distribute concrete into the formwork. Using a concrete consistency with 8mm maximum grain size and Mooser formwork vibrators for concrete compaction, the high architectural demands could be easily met. The result showed an excellent fair-faced wall in the inner side of the "Women Pure Pyramid".
