Manufacturing Plant

Tivall Frying Line

The precast concrete structure was performed on two different buildings, which are part of a plant manufacturing food products. The first building expands the production line in a new single-bay facility (its roof was extended to the existing building using cantilevers). The modular span of columns in transverse direction is 17.1 m, with a 3 m distance from the existing building. The total length of the new facility is 205 m (respecting the five-meter module). Horizontally, it is divided into 6 sections separated with expansion joints and may be further enlarged in the future (without the need for any additional expansion joints). Inside the new facility, there are also two built-in units with pre-stressed slabs with a span of 10 m.

The second part of the project is a new two-storey service building (15.3 m by 40.0 m), which connects to the existing HVAC plant room. The ground floor houses the plant room and the control room is located on the 1^st floor. Its floor structures consist of beams and pre-stressed slabs (thickness of 400 mm). In places with higher point loads, a U-shaped main beam was designed and performed instead of floor slabs.
