Arena Leme Hotel

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Description

The Leme Arena is a five-star hotel in the south of Rio de Janeiro. There are 66 apartments in a building area of approximately 16.845 m2. The hotel was constructed using dry piles a relatively new technology in Brazil and mostly used when an area has sandy soils and high water table.


Products Used

THE “white tank system” was chosen to ensure an impermeable structure. A “dry pile” method used smaller excavations at the job site and poured concrete in smaller batches. PENETRON ADMIX was added to the new concrete; PENEBAR SW-55 waterstop, PENETRON crystalline topical material, PENECRETE MORTAR and PENEPLUG were also applied.
