Knights Brown was appointed to construct a 6,700m² portal frame warehouse, fabrication workshop, single storey office building, concrete block paved external storage yard and parking area, complete with Section 278 connection to the estate road. Additional elements included utility connections and drainage, fencing, gates and landscaping.
Our value engineering solutions achieved significant reductions to both cost and programme at the preconstruction stage. And following the start of works, our continued collaborative efforts to minimise costs generated a further £300k of savings.
The warehouse has aluminium cladding, natural daylight industrial roof lights and rapid rise roller shutter doors. Substantial M&E installations provide temperature controlled storage and lighting systems.
The warehouse is designed to house a heavy duty moveable racking system that required the finished floor levels to be laid within extremely fine tolerances. The whole structure is supported on driven piles with traditional concrete pile caps and ground beams.
