Helguvík foundation cast
Today Iceland Prime Contractor cast the first foundations of the pot room for the Nordurál aluminium smelter in Helguvík.
An estimated 36,000 m3 of concrete will be used for the pot room once fully constructed, and some 60,000 m3 will be used for the completed smelter.
Preparatory work – groundwork, road construction, and other construction site set-up – has been underway since March 2008.
