Challenges and solutions
To optimise the production area, 12m openings in the sides of the building were required. To achieve this we designed structural clearspan trusses, allowing for the removal of a column.
Our client needed a solution for obstruction-free access into the building for equipment and delivery trucks. We achieved this by upgrading the main shed columns and adding 9m wide cantilevered canopies into the design.
