It towers above every other building in Baden-Württemberg and contains Germany’s highest observa-tion deck: the elevator test tower of thyssenkrupp Elevator AG in the Swabian town of Rottweil. A 17,000 m² envelope made of a polymer-coated glass fibre fabric spirals its way around the main body, serving as the facade’s cladding. Heavy-duty fixings by fischer were used to anchor this membrane. The lantern gear rails of the installation shuttle were also partially anchored with fischer systems. A total of approximately 22,000 fischer products were used on the project.
