Reconstruction Bälliz 29, Thun
1997
The existing building in the center of Thun was converted into business premises and apartments. On the 1st floor, three high reinforced concrete girders were installed, which protruded from above about 70 cm into the clearance gauge. The planned store was to be column-free with a smooth soffit. The existing beam layers were to remain unchanged.
