The food distribution facility at Derrimut includes over 50,000m2 of warehouse and cold handling floor, 2500m2 of A-class office space and over 3500m2 of plant room / workshop. Long span portal frame construction was used to eliminate internal bracing bays thus providing unrestricted movement to warehouse traffic and future planning. 

Project Features:

  • Civil works included design and documentation of site bulk earthworks, truck pavements, car parks, stormwater drainage, trunk sewers, and services coordination.
  • Truck pavements and hardstands totalled approximately 50,000m² in area.
  • Constructed over very difficult ground conditions. Pavements were designed for a non-standard 50 year design life. 

The project team worked closely with the client and architects to achieve the required high level of quality and efficiency in design.
