Location -
Oxfordshire
Building Type -
Breeder Farm
Construction -
Timber Framed
We were involved in this project from initial planning stages through to completion.
The site consists of two timber framed, steel lined and clad breeder buildings. The units are linked with a bio-secure service area incorporating packing area, egg store, water tank room, toilets, kitchen, office and store areas.
The site had a challenging change in levels from service to bird area. Careful design, planning and teamwork between the client, Jaques Int Ltd, ground-workers and equipment suppliers ensured that the project was completed without problems and on schedule.
The buildings have a typical side wall air inlet and roof fan air extraction ventilation system. Jaques Int Ltd roof fan chimneys, with butterfly valves and light reduction trays are used along with Jaques Int Ltd light proofed inlet cowls.
Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2007 apply to all construction projects where people are at work. As this particular project lasted for more than 30 days it was a HSE notifiable project.
