Structural Steel & Cladding, Anchor Business Park, Little Island, Cork

This could be perceived as a big shed, however there is more that meets the eye.

Every inch of the warehouse can be accessed by gantry crane and it included NCD Fabricating and Erecting over 300Tn of Gantry support Steel.

Due to the Size and weight of the DC Cooling Units for the end user, the requirement for the gantry's was 25Tn Capacity Cranes with a span of 18m long, therefore our available tolerances for this building were near zero.

For our fabrication workforce, this was bread and butter stuff, however detailing and more so the erection and plumbing of this project were imperative.

Across the spans, at a height of 12m above FFL, the tolerances available to us were =<3mm.

This required communication with all our suppliers including Steel Stockholders to supply steel bars well inside rolling tolerances and they provided top quality material and we thank them for same.

Despite the size and scope of the Project, we started standing the first column on 4th December 2023 and fully handed the building over on the 15th of March, totaling 12 working weeks from start to finish in the harshest of weather.

I'll finish as I started, this could be perceived as a big shed from the outside, but for us, it is a top quality facility delivered in a best in class fashion.
