XXL CONSTRUCTIONS redesigned and built a 7 unit industrial warehouse complex in cold form steel
XXL CONSTRUCTIONS was asked to redesign and construct an industrial skillion-roofed warehouse complex comprising a total of 7 individual units in Bennetts Green southwest of Newcastle, NSW.
The single point-of-contact, concept to completion, build management solution provided by XXL CONSTRUCTIONS involved the production of design concept drawings, steel detailing drawings, structural drawings, engineering compliance and approval, construction drawings, materials and trade procurement and the build management of the site preparation, the foundation works, the slab laying, the steel frame, roofing, and cladding install, the open mezzanine floor install, and the occupancy certification.
The design incorporated C150 stud plates style, internal dividing walls, and clear span cold form portals within the units and XXL CONSTRUCTIONS successfully reduced the overall internal wall thickness from 370mm down to 170mm by using a stud frame design to replace mullions and girts and stepped down internal walls, to maximise space, on this sloping block.
The redesign of the complex, incorporating the constraints of the sloping block, was successfully achieved via a thorough design function audit process. The complex delivered by XXL CONSTRUCTIONS far exceeded the client’s expectations.
