Contributing to Luxembourg's attractiveness

<h3>Passion &amp; Mobility, Art &amp; Leisure, Work &amp; Stay</h3>
<a title="" href="https://www.gridx.lu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">GRIDX</a> is an innovative center in the country that brings together craft, commercial, professional, accommodation, catering, entertainment, experiences, innovation and events around the theme of passion for mobility. This concept is embodied by a site with an original architecture and a strong identity that is the gateway to the inclusive and immersive experience of GRIDX. With a surface area of 42,000m2 and a capacity of 1,500 parking spaces, the center will be driven by three pillars: Passion &amp; Mobility, Art &amp; Leisure, Work &amp; Stay.
<h3>An immersive, multi-sensory experience</h3>
GRIDX will offer an immersive, multi-sensory experience. The center is not only aimed at mobility enthusiasts, especially those who love fine mechanical engineering, but also at a wider public thanks to the many shops and services that will constitute an exclusive and complete offer, represented by tenants who value excellence and quality. Partnerships with the great names of Motorworld and Mauto will reinforce this experience at the heart of mobility.
Visitors will discover a permanent automotive exhibition that will bring together some of the most beautiful models from the collection of the prestigious National Automobile Museum of Turin, for the delight of little ones and grown-ups.
<h3>The art of tomorrow</h3>
Among the new experiences that will be offered are a digital art space, an e-sport hall where competitions of great video games such as FIFA, League of Legend or Clash of Clans will take place.

Felix Giorgetti, head of Development, then revealed the details of this new project: GRIDX.

Launched in September 2020, our construction site along the A4 at Wickrange is taking shape every day, revealing the contours of a large-scale project and arousing the curiosity of passers-by.
After several years of development, F&eacute;lix Giorgetti had the pleasure and the pride to officially present to the press and to the stakeholders the identity and the concept of his project which was kept confidential until now. The meeting was held on Thursday, June 9, directly on the construction site.
As a preamble, Marc Giorgetti (co-manager of F&eacute;lix Giorgetti) - accompanied by Paul Giorgetti (co-manager of F&eacute;lix Giorgetti), and Roland Kuhn (managing director of Kuhn Construction) - recalled the origin of the project: a 3 hectare plot of land belonging to F&eacute;lix Giorgetti and Kuhn Construction, for which a PAP required the creation of a multi-functional zone intended for craftsmanship, services, offices, and retail.
Driven by its strong local roots, its expertise as a builder and real estate developer, and its constant desire to innovate, F&eacute;lix Giorgetti developed a mixed-use activity center with an unseen concept in Luxembourg.
<blockquote>
"With this project, the company has seized a new opportunity to reinvent itself, to aim for new ambitions and to acquire new skills. It is a strong symbol for our company, carried by the 4th generation of the Giorgetti family who brings a new and modern vision", concluded Marc Giorgetti.
</blockquote>

On Thursday June 9, Felix Giorgetti unveiled the details of his construction site in Wickrange: GRIDX, a mixed-use activity center to open in September 2024.

Luxembourg City's council visit of the Ban de Gasperich public park

On Tuesday May 10th, the Luxembourg City's council, represented by Lydie Polfer, mayor, Serge Wilmes, first alderman, and Simone Beissel, alderman, invited the press to visit the Ban de Gasperich public park. The city representants presented the progress of the work done by Felix Giorgetti and its landscape concept. "There is still a lot of work to be done, but we can see what the park will look like," explained the mayor.
Opening in spring 2023
The project takes place in the Ban de Gasperich, a rapidly growing neighborhood that is experiencing considerable population growth and an increase in the working population on the site. The Ban de Gasperich public park aims to create a recreation and leisure area for its residents, students and workers.
"This 16.6 hectare park, which will be the largest in the capital, is a real added value for the city, for the Cloche d'Or district and its inhabitants. It's a beautiful urban planning project," added Serge Wilmes before walking along the paths that are still under construction and that visitors will be able to walk on in a year.
<a title="" href="https://www.gio.lu/projets?id=gasperich-parc-du-ban-de-gasperich" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The civil engineering work entrusted by the City of Luxembourg to F&eacute;lix Giorgetti began in summer 2020.</a> They will be completed in a few weeks to make way for the development of the various leisure areas and facilities.

<a title="" href="luxembourg-avenue-de-la-gare" target="_self">As a reminder, this mixed-use project will consist of 2,300 m2 of offices and 876 m2 of shops on the first floor.</a> Its realization required major preparatory works including the demolition of the existing buildings and the earthwork of the ground composed of very hard rock of category 7. An important stabilization system was put in place in order to protect the surrounding buildings and the historical facade.

Important preparatory work

<h3>Conjugate past and future</h3>
The historical facade, which has been preserved, is the real architectural signature of the project and will be restored after the collective summer vacations. This mission is carried out in collaboration with the architect of the Service des sites et monuments nationaux.
<blockquote>
In total, 370m2 of the facade will be given a second life and will be enhanced by the rest of the facade, which will be clad in light-colored natural stone.
</blockquote>
<h3>A traversing crane</h3>
The tower crane that was used for the structural work is still on site and is traversing the-1 and the ground floors. It will be removed in July and the slabs will then be closed.
Predicted end: spring 2023.

The participants praised the approach and its content, while giving suggestions for improvement and even for future editions. This first Health and Safety at Work week will not be the last!

The positive feedback collected during a satisfaction survey conducted at the end of the training is very satisfactory and reinforces our company in this approach.

Positive feedbacks

In the vast majority of cases, these are minor accidents that could have been avoided and that have repercussions on several levels. First of all, for the injured person, who will suffer the physical and psychological consequences of his or her accident in the more or less long term. For the teams as well, who will have to make up for the absence of a colleague. For the company, this has a significant impact in terms of productivity and costs. In 2021, 1,500 working days were lost.
<h3>6 workshops</h3>
For this first edition, six thematic workshops were addressed in a theoretical and practical way:
<ul>
<li>Slinging: the choice of slings and accessories according to the load, the environment and the equipment available, judging the condition of slings and accessories, setting up accessories to carry out specific slings and reminding of good practices;</li>
<li>Fires: reminder of the different types of extinguishers and how to use them;</li>
<li>Escalib: assembly, stabilization, reception and dismantling of a metal spiral staircase of the Escalib type in order to move easily and safely;</li>
<li>The 5S method: a workshop led by one of our Lean manager from our Lean &amp; Methods Department, which aimed to show and apply this practice of optimizing the conditions and the work environment by ensuring that it remains tidy, clean and secure with rigor;</li>
<li>PPE: presentation and demonstration of the different types of Personal Protective Equipment to be worn according to the risks encountered.</li>
<li>Sateco panels: installation and stabilization of a Sateco panel according to the manufacturer's recommendations and demonstration of the risks involved in falling from a panel.</li>
</ul>
<blockquote>
With this first Health and Safety week, Felix Giorgetti wanted to increase its employees' awareness of this essential theme in our sector.
</blockquote>
To ensure everybody's safety on our sites, it is not only a question of providing adequate equipment and using quality and well-maintained material, but also of training people in their proper use. Especially since our business has changed a lot since the beginning of the company and is constantly evolving. It is also necessary for everyone to be aware of the issues related to this topic, in particular the role they have to play to ensure their own safety, of their colleagues and of all those involved.

As a reminder, 80 accidents were recorded in 2021, 34 of which were due to a lack of attention, 16 due to falls from a height and on the same level, and 15 due to manual handling.

Fire workshop during the Health and Safety at Work Week 2022

In total, more than 350 employees took part in this training program, including workers, supervisors and employees from the head office. Each day, 80 people divided into six teams took part in six workshops led by IFSB trainers and F&eacute;lix Giorgetti. Before going to the different workshops, the teams were first given a briefing by IFSB and F&eacute;lix Giorgetti, who explained the day's activities and the reason for its organization.

Safety is a priority theme at Felix Giorgetti. This is why the company organized its first Occupational Health and Safety week. A training action that took place on the premises and with the collaboration of the IFSB from April 4 to 8.

une-pc-490-aux-couleurs-de-giorgetti

Felix Giorgetti has two real PC 490s, one of which is being used on the Raemerich bypass in the south of the country. With its almost 50 tons, 3.6m height, 11m length and 367 horsepower, it combines power, precision and efficiency. With a single shovelful, the machine can carry up to 3.5 tons of soil.
An ideal ally for large-scale earthworks. In Raemerich, for example, 400,000m&sup3; of material will be excavated to build the new 1.7km section connecting Esch-sur-Alzette to Audun-le-Tiche. This is also where the two models met... &nbsp;

50 tons of power and precision

"The base of the machine is made of steel and weighs 15 kg on its own to ensure stability during maneuvers. The cylinders are made of brass, the track - custom-made in Germany - is made of stainless steel, as are the valves. Some parts are made of plastic and others were 3D printed. For the paint, I found the reference of Giorgetti yellow and blue, and I asked Paul and Marc Giorgetti for their permission to use the logo," he says.
In addition, there are four electric motors, two for the tracks, one for the block rotation and one for the hydraulic pump. "The cylinders have been tested to 40 bar. The excavator works like a real one except it doesn't make any noise!"

"It works like the real one"

The mini PC490 and the original model on the Raemerich bypass construction site

David Odendahl paid a nice tribute to Felix Giorgetti by reproducing a 1/14th scale Komatsu PC 490 hydraulic excavator in our company's colors. A model of 20 kilos all the same...&nbsp;
David Odendahl, almost 40 years old, from Luxembourg, has been passionate about model making since he was very young. Since I was 11 years old," he says. I've made cars, trucks... and now excavators." For this industrial operator's other passion is construction equipment, hydraulic excavators in particular. "It would have been my dream to be able to work for a company like Felix Giorgetti!"
The enthusiast then combined his two passions by building replica excavator models. A friend who runs the "Construction Equipment Luxembourg" page on Facebook posted a photo of a PC 490 in the colors of F&eacute;lix Giorgetti. I thought to myself, 'That's original! It's a model that is not very well represented in model making". So the challenge was there. At the Bauma in Munich in 2019, the world's largest construction trade fair, he ordered a Komatsu 499-11 model and fitted it with a demolition arm. Then he went to one of our construction sites to take inspiration from the real model and photograph it from every angle. Two years of meticulous assembly followed in his spare time.

The scale of the site is such that it has been divided into four zones. In total, up to 85 people, workers and supervisors, work in this huge hive where the complex is gradually emerging from the ground. "&thinsp;In the park house area, we are finishing level +2, presents our project manager project manager. The elevations of the hotel walls have also begun &raquo;, explains our project manager.
Regarding the construction itself, the main building and the offices consist of a metal frame with floors in collaborating steel trays, the exterior elevations are in reinforced concrete poured on site and double walls inside. For offices, the concrete slab will be smoothed and left rough.
The seven-storey, 40m high hotel will be made up of prefabricated sandwich panels measuring 8.10 x 3.05m and weighing up to 12 tons for the heaviest. These are concrete walls that include both insulation and finishing. These structural elements thus save significant time.
"In general, we proceed in phases. For example, we go up three levels, then we fix the metal frame. It is made up of posts of 15 to 18m. Then we lay the steel decks and concrete one level after another. It's more efficient to do it this way," he explains .
At the entrance to the site, major connection work to the external networks (rainwater and waste water) was also carried out. The teams dug underground to pass under the road on Rue des Trois Cantons. A 10m long trench was dug to install a machine that allows pipes to be laid five and seven meters deep.

Divided in four zones

Global view of Wickrange working site

It's hard to miss the huge construction site that borders the A4 motorway near Wickrange. It is there, a few minutes from the capital and close to the borders, on the Route des Trois Cantons, that F&eacute;lix Giorgetti is building a new activity center. A project of more than 90,000m&sup2; gross built on a site of 3.3ha. It is a complex consisting of a commercial area and a future housing estate developed and built by F&eacute;lix Giorgetti.
The starting signal was given in January 2020, when the intense and vast earthworks task began. A few months and some 260,000 m&sup3; of rubble evacuated later, the structural work was able to begin. Excavators and dumpers gave way to concrete mixers, formwork panels, and above all to 9 Skyliners cranes: six tower cranes, two mobile cranes and a crawler crane. Proof, if needed, of the size of the site.
Without revealing the concept &ndash; which will soon be presented at a press conference &ndash; this new center will bring together many activities that will contribute to its attractiveness to different audiences:
<ul>
<li>Artisanal and commercial &thinsp;;</li>
<li>Desks &nbsp;;</li>
<li>Hotel ;</li>
<li>A large capacity park house.</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;

In Wickrange, route des Trois Cantons, Félix Giorgetti is building a large-scale project in partnership with Kuhn Construction. A mixed-use project of approximately 90,000 m² which extends over more than 3 ha. Visit.
