The Danish construction firm Aarsleff has completed the project it has been working on since 2021, erecting a brand-new 90 thousand square metre terminal area that the Ports of Halland will use to ship more forestry products.
The works included dredging from two to 11 metres and setting up a 360-metre-long quay plus a 140-metre-long pier.
Construction involved ramming 255 steel piles of 600 millimetres in diameter and measuring 35-to-50 metres as the foundation for the quay wall, upon which 223 slabs weighing 60-to-165 tonnes rested on 253 pile tops (both produced at Aarsleff's cement factory in Poland).
