Building Collapse
The site had undergone a recent misfortune, resulting in the collapse of the original warehouse due to a fire. The owner wished to rebuild the warehouse on the site with the funds received from the insurance.
Croft Structural & Civil had two roles
1) Croft completed a fire design survey to determine which structural elements had been damaged, and which were still acceptable for structural use. 2) We completed the new design of the warehouse under a Design and Build contract with novation to the contractor
Advanced computer software
The design was not grand, but with our advanced computer software we minimised the overall weight of steelwork to reduce the build cost on the project.
