Undercover Maintenance Area for Intercity Trains from Spaciotempo UK Ltd
|
Bombardier Transportation is the global leader in the rail equipment
manufacturing and servicing industry.
The Wakefield division contacted Spaciotempo
when they required additional undercover workshop space to house service
and maintain intercity trains.
The building needed to be long enough to accommodate the full length of
the trains, erected over an existing railway line and completed within a
restricted time frame to minimise disruption to mainline services!
Spaciotempo provided a building 10m wide x 5m high and an incredible 160m
long. Ancillary items included automatic electric access shutter doors,
8 x personnel / fire doors, guttering, vented gabling, lighting and
heating.
Our system created a highly practical
environment for servicing trains – a solution not easily achievable with
conventional building methods.
The translucent roofing allowed for good natural light whilst TempAwall®
provided the perfect water and stain resistant surface for high pressure
washing and other maintenance tasks.
The building also provided Bombardier with the flexibility to easily
expand the workshop in 5m bays or to relocate to an alternate location.
