This project involves the design and construction of a single-storey extension, including the necessary parking, service areas, hard landscaping, additional site access, and enclosures.

The work will include the construction of a steel-framed structure to create the following spaces:

Warehouse: 5,220m² (56,185.9 ft²)

The building will be clad with a combination of composite panels for the walls and built-up cladding for the roof, featuring roof lights, a parapet with internal gutters, and a siphonic drainage system. A projecting canopy will be installed above the docks, along with six new steel sectional overhead doors and steel fire exit doors, completing the external envelope.

The new extension will connect to the existing building via three ‘tunnel-like’ link areas, which will be constructed toward the project's conclusion. The existing sprinkler system will be upgraded and extended to cover the new warehouse extension.

Internally, a new staff area will be created within the existing warehouse, separated by a temporary screen and accessed from the extension. This area will include mess rooms, meeting rooms, an office, locker/changing areas, showers, and WCs, with a ground floor and mezzanine level.

All necessary mechanical and electrical work to support the fit-out will be included, as outlined in the construction drawings and contract specifications.

Internal partitions will typically be made using drylining systems that comply with the specifications provided by Pozzoni Architects. Ceilings will feature a mix of metal frames and ceiling grids with various tile finishes.

The building will rest on concrete pad foundations, as per the engineer's specifications. Externally, the site will have a mix of hard surfacing finishes, with an extended brushed finish concrete service yard as part of the development. A small retaining wall at the back of the existing yards will be transitioned onto new Trief kerbs.

A minor section of S278 works will be carried out, including the creation of a new access point off Chippenham Drive, which will provide access to a parking area for 26 vehicles.

The scope of work also includes all necessary below-ground drainage, foul and stormwater pumps, attenuation systems, ducting, and utility infrastructure.

All work will be carried out within the site boundary, with no need for access to adjacent land.
