Ferretti Construction successfully completed the full replacement of the Hot Strip Mill foundations within an extremely limited 35-day production shutdown, leveraging its proven Fast-Track Revamping methodology.

By employing pre-assembled foundation blocks and integrating design with site operations, the team achieved a 75% time saving compared to standard execution schedules—while maintaining full compliance with safety, quality, and layout integration requirements.

Key figures:

  • 320 pre-assembled blocks, totaling 2.100 tons
  • 9.000 m³ of demolition works
  • 8.000 m³ of structural concrete poured
  • 35 calendar days of shutdown
  • More than 120 skilled workers operating 24/7

A clear demonstration of high-efficiency project execution and advanced industrial planning, all delivered with minimal impact on plant productivity.
