A developer approached XXL SHEDS® to redesign, supply and build an industrial Skillion roofed warehouse comprising a total of 7 individual units in the Newcastle region. Using XXL SHEDS® design function audit process they exceeded the client expectations and the results speak for themselves.

The design incorporates C150 stud plates style internal dividing walls and clear span cold form portals within the units where required. XXL SHEDS successfully reduced the overall  internal wall thickness from 370mm down to 170mm by using its stud frame design replacing mullions and girts. This was particularly difficult on a sloping site where the use of step downs at some internal walls were required.
