Engineers
building a multi-million pound extension to Nottingham’s tram
system now have somewhere to store construction equipment and
materials after investing in one of our temporary buildings.
Vinci
Construction has purchased a 600sqm single-skin Neivalu temporary
building in order to house lengths of track and the metalwork used to
hold the overhead cables - as well as provide office space – while
the company builds the 17.5km line, which is set to be completed
towards the end of next year.
The
temporary building measures 90m from gable to gable and although the
original plan was to erect in a flat, level site, a change of plan
saw it located on a site that rose very slightly at one end.
Such
an elevation, although minimal, would require extensive groundwork to
accommodate a similar sized permanent structure, but it caused no
significant problems for us when erecting the temporary structure and
Vinci was able to move into its new facility in under two weeks.
Scott
Jameson, director of sales at Spaciotempo, said: “By purchasing the
building, Vinci will enjoy the flexibility of having a purpose-built
facility that can be moved around the site to meet future needs, or
can be dismantled and erected elsewhere.
“The
Neivalu is a quality building that is more than capable of meeting
Vinci’s needs in Nottingham over the next few years and for many
years afterwards.”
