industrial, commercial, and logistics
With expertise extending across developments carried out by many of the leading distribution centre developers and operators in the UK.
From many years of experience and knowledge we are regularly called upon to advise on a wide variety of industrial, commercial, and logistics projects.
Each year considerable areas of hardstanding are constructed around industrial, commercial, and logistics premises. They are an important asset in the whole operation of these sites and pavements. Their environments are frequently required to accommodate and withstand a very wide range of operations. They therefore require a high level of care and attention and the design stage and during use.
With experience working with leading distribution centre developers and operators.
The Fjori staff experience in this area extends across developments carried out by many of the leading distribution centre developers and operators in the UK. Our team has helped developers and constructors save considerable monies both in construction costs and also in maintenance and repair costs.
Alex Lake, the Director at Fjori, is the author of the Britpave ‘Concrete Hardstanding Design Handbook’ which includes the very latest thinking in hardstanding foundations and materials, as well as sitting on the technical steering panel for the Concrete Society reference document TR66, ‘External In-situ concrete paving’.
