A 31,000m2 warehouse mezzanine floor
We got the opportunity to step into the initial stages of the building design for a huge retailing customer. We came up with a totally sufficient solution for their new distribution centre. A no nonsense approach, with the mix of looking for the best solution in relation to the building requirements and the budget we finally managed together to come up with a brilliant solution in terms of our customer’s logistic process.
Column loads have been evaluated and together with the customer we took part in the required approval process to get the necessary building permits. With special knot connections on each level of the column we figured out a solution to have a bracing free steel construction in main beam direction. Other direction of the mezzanine was still stabilised with crosses. Locations of these crosses were in strategic locations where the goods where to be stored. In a fully operational warehouse, the customer does not have a single blocking issue for his operation.
An additional requirement was the save evacuation routes in case of an emergency. We designed a special construction with enclosed stair towers which can hold the required twenty minutes for a save escape in case of a fire.
