How did we do it?
Challenge
Tobroco, a leading manufacturer of earthmoving equipment, articulated loaders and wheel loaders under the name Giant, needed more warehouse space. While waiting for the new building to be completed, the company decided to look for a temporary solution to increase the available storage space. The challenge was to rapidly expand the existing buildings, without interfering with daily activities.
Solution
Veldeman erected two storage tents with a total area of 1,600 m2; the first with a minimum side height of 5.5 m, and the second one with a side height of 3.8 m. The project was completed in just 2 weeks. The tents were built onto existing buildings and provided with corridors, doors, entrance gates, (emergency) doors etc. To make the indoor climate as optimal as possible, the tents were fitted with insulating thermal roofing and solid walls.
