Many investors pose the problem of raising the warehouse floor because during the production process, the warehouse area does not have enough space in the production process. Investing in buying more land to expand factories is not an easy solution in terms of infrastructure costs.
Therefore, to meet the needs of business expansion, expanding production and raising warehouse floors is the optimal solution for this problem of investors.
To ensure that the warehouse floor is properly technical and safe for the construction site and employees. When conducting a survey and determining the load-bearing capacity of the walls, foundation as well as the current state of the factory to give appropriate construction measures.
- Deploy the design and ask for permission in required cases, if any.
- For the ground with poor foundation, it is necessary to press the pile to plant more columns, the surrounding steel frame creates a bearing frame system to support part of the load of the upper floor.
- Materials for the floor can use lightweight concrete materials to reduce pressure on the frame and foundation, soundproof, heat-insulating ventilation...
- During the construction process, it is necessary to closely supervise and ensure that the columns are dug deep under the good ground to create a single foundation and build columns.
There are many different methods of raising floors, but currently there are two methods that are interested by contractors: Raising the warehouse floor through the mezzanine floor and raising the warehouse floor in the form of a split floor.
+ Raise the warehouse floor through the mezzanine floor: This is a type of floor raising that takes advantage of the height of the factory by creating a mezzanine floor with stairs going up. Behind the warehouse usually has a height of about 2.5m and the lower floor is arranged for goods or combined toilets to take advantage of space.
+ Raise the floor of the warehouse with different floors: In this method, the warehouse space is divided into 2 separate parts in front and behind. Warehouse space often prioritizes the arrangement of machinery, storage of production or auxiliary materials. The design of raising the floor up a few steps creates a difference in the foundation between the front warehouse block and the rear warehouse block. From the rear height are stairs going up to the floor in the front block. That structure will be intertwined to get to the next floors. For this method, it will create a ground floor with a difference in height between floors and ensure good bearing capacity.
In the case of warehouses that have been calculated to expand in advance, there are solid foundations available with waiting steel heads. This means that when upgrading the warehouse, it is necessary to dismantle the upper roof and pour columns to build the wall for the upper part.
- For the case of a warehouse with a weak foundation without a plan and an expansion plan in advance, raising the warehouse floor is not easy and has many potential risks during the renovation process. When designing and building factories, it is necessary to calculate and choose the appropriate plan flexibly.
- The requirements and standards of warehouse floors are not easy. Construction contractors need to adhere to certain standards that cannot be deviated to ensure safe and solid works. Therefore, the investor needs to choose a reputable and professional factory design and construction contractor.
