Multi-storey factories are gradually becoming popular with the expansion of investment in manufacturing enterprises when the land is limited but still need to meet the storage space, production machinery and optimize the cost of material investment. still provide instant profits.
It is easy to see clearly that taking advantage of the increasingly narrow industrial land fund, industrial real estate rental prices have increased significantly during the past 10 years. The 2-storey factory is considered a smart solution to make the most of the space and optimize investment costs.

2-storey factory building density does not depend on the area or height of the work, investors can make the most of the land fund by increasing the number of construction floors. Two-storey factories occupy the majority of the industrial parks.
It is possible to take advantage of the 1-storey factory and raise it to 2 floors to optimize the area and space when the business does not have the budget to build 2 floors at a time. Reduce investment costs for expansion when sufficient funds are available.
Option 1:
+ Phase 1 builds 1 floor with suitable roof architecture
+ Phase 2 builds the 2nd floor overlapping the 1st floor
Option 2:
+ Phase 1: building a factory on the first floor with a height of up to the 2nd floor
+ Phase 1: construction of the system of supporting columns and floor 2

Attention should be paid to the method of foundation and structure right from the first stage. The foundation structure, piles, columns and beams of the 1st floor are carefully calculated to ensure not only the weight of the 2nd floor but also the machinery system. production line of 1st and 2nd floor.
Factory with 2 floors of concrete and steel structure
This is a method of making a modern and beautiful 2-storey factory suitable for all fields of production that need to be built. The structure covers mainly steel trusses with corrugated iron roofs.

This type of workshop has good load-bearing capacity, the steel structure has a light load, so there is no need for many columns, the space used in the factory will be larger. Especially saving construction time.
Besides reinforced concrete prefabricated steel frame workshops, there are certain limitations. Still have to construct reinforced concrete floor with glass closing process. Must ensure fire protection and construction work, using steel structure roofs that need to be painted with fireproof paint for components such as roof trusses, 2nd floor steel columns, etc. meet fire protection requirements.
2-storey factory with concrete and corrugated steel floor
This method has the best application today when it overcomes most of the disadvantages of construction progress and optimizes costs compared to other methods.

The use of the floor system helps to speed up the construction process because it has reduced the stage compared to the method of using traditional floor beams. Optimizing construction costs, saving formwork costs. Significantly reduces the self-weight of the floor, reducing the load.
The disadvantage of this 2-storey factory construction method requires a complex beam system, wanting to use the deck is both difficult and wasteful to use. There are no specific standards for testing fireproof paints for load-bearing structures that affect the acceptance of fire protection. Therefore, it is necessary to consider, depending on the size of the investment of the factory, the need to use the function, the investor can choose a 2-storey factory with an appropriate construction method.
2-storey factory with concrete structure
It is a type of 2-storey factory using the main materials of concrete and reinforcement for both the floor and the roof. The advantage of this construction method is that it is non-combustible and has a low coefficient of thermal conductivity, reinforced concrete structures can meet all fire protection regulations. Has good fire resistance and impact resistance.

The complex construction process requires strict requirements on the number and size of foundations and piles, so it takes a lot of construction costs as well as construction time. The ability to overcome concrete spans costs a lot of columns to be constructed, affecting the production space in the factory
