RENOVATION WITH BALCONIES IN UHPC

 

Over the past few years, housing association Fredensbo’s Dept. 5 in Brønderslev, Denmark, has undergone an extensive renovation. The development, originally built between 1946 and 1950, consists of 94 apartments spread across nine blocks with varying appearances. One thing they all had in common: none of them previously had balconies.

 

It was important for the project to meet the modern tenants' needs for private outdoor spaces, which led to the decision to install balconies. Hi-Con contributed to the project by supplying slender balconies made of Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC). The balconies were designed to complement the diverse façades of the existing buildings while still creating a unified and cohesive appearance across the development.

 

By using UHPC, Hi-Con ensured that the new balconies not only enhanced the visual appeal of the buildings but could also be mounted directly onto the original façades, without placing unnecessary load on the structure.

"We already have balconies from Hi-Con in another department, so we know the product very well and felt that the slim, maintenance-free balconies would be a perfect fit for the comprehensive renovation plan we’re currently carrying out in our Dept. 5. The buildings were originally constructed in the 1940s, and Hi-Con’s balconies help give the blocks character."
