A full site survey is undertaken on every project to determine access and the maximum module sizes that can be used. We use pad foundations as standard, with specifications dependent on the specific site ground conditions.
Our temporary buildings have been independently assessed and given a life expectancy of up to 25 years. Permanent structures comparable to traditional construction have a design life of 50 or 60 years.
All mechanical, electrical, plumbing and ICT installations can be included in your building specification. Alternatively, Algeco Offsite Solutions can make provision for cableways to allow your own sub-contractors to install systems as required.
Voids range between 200-600mm deep, depending on the building design and products used.
Subject to product type and specific requirements of the project, we can provide buildings with a structural, clear opening of up to 3.3m high, allowing for a 2.7m suspended ceiling height whilst still maintaining a 0.6m service zone.
We offer a range of products which have different wall constructions to suit specific project requirements in terms of fire, thermal and acoustic performance. Our systems have been independently tested and can achieve fire resistance in excess of 60 minutes.
Alterations to the internal layout of your building can be easily accommodated at a later date. At handover we will provide a comprehensive ‘as-built’ manual, containing all relevant building structure information and health and safety details necessary for managing future alterations.
Yes, our building systems can be designed to accommodate a full pallet of architectural finishes using a range of external materials. Some external treatments are more suited to offsite construction than others, by allowing installation of cladding in our factory rather than on-site. Our experienced engineering teams can provide advice and guidance on suitable cladding systems.
Our standard products are designed to provide accommodation up to 4 storeys high. However, we can also offer custom products to achieve taller structures to suit specific project requirements
Our standard products are designed to achieve clear span of up between 8 and 12m, depending on the product used. However, we can offer bespoke solutions to meet specific project requirements.
