Abstract

Kula Belgrade is the tallest building within the Belgrade Waterfront Project located on the right bank of the Sava River. It is envisaged as the future landmark of Belgrade and the pivotal point of Belgrade Waterfront development. It consists of a 168m high - 42 store tower, a podium and an eccentric basement. It is one of the rare towers in the world in which the bottom and the top parts are mutually rotated by 90° in plan and where such a transition is achieved through 7 floors - a configuration that imposes significant demands to the structure. While the 1st part of the article addressed specific topics related to design, this 2nd part is about the specific topics related to the construction of Kula Belgrade's structure, including the enabling works, construction, and testing program of piles that comprised various types of tests, including the static compression test by Osterberg cell at two tower piles with a 1200 mm diameter. The article also addresses the construction of foundations, which included the concreting of a raft under the tower in volume of 4750m3 cast in one turn, the execution of core walls in jump form, the distinctive transfer structure and PT slabs.
