Structa provided pre-planning, ground investigation and full civil and structural engineering design for over 15 nationally distributed industrial developments under the ‘Own Your Own’ brand. These developments have provided over 170 freehold industrial units for sale to local businesses.
Each site has presented its own unique challenges, including the need for flood compensation, complex contamination risk assessment as well as highway and access constraints.
Acting on behalf of the developer and then working closely with contractors as a novated consultant, Structa have helped develop a number of innovative and cost saving details permitting the rapid and economic construction of industrial buildings and associated yards.
Many of the details developed for the OYO schemes have later been utilised in larger B8 use schemes resulting in significant savings on those projects.
