Footings
John Doak a commercial/residential builder in the
Geelong district from Impact Property
Development, recommended for this development
that we use a concrete raft slab roughly between
200mm and 500mm depending on soil type and an
engineers report.

Warehouse Surface

• The Installation of a epoxy resin floor finish
  will be required. A mixture of polymeric and
  polyurethane will provide a durable surface area
  to protect against abrasion and chemical
  spillage. The floor surface will be around 1mm
  thick. This surface system is called F-100 high
  performance epoxy resin floor finish. There is
  an option of a conductive or an anti static
  finish. The floor colour will be a light blue
  colour to allow for spills and other hazards to
  be detected. This type of flooring system meets
  Australian Standards.

5
Portal Frames

• Definition A continuous ridged frame with a
  restrained joint between the column and beam.
  The frame will act as one structural entity.
• Source SRT 251 Construction Structures 2
  Lecture Notes
• Group Definition Large spaning framework
  structure consisting of knee joints between the
  columns and rafters allowing for a large column
  free open space.

Benefits of Portal Frames

• Large open space
• Easy to assemble
• Cost effective
• Time saving
• Not labour intensive

7
Common Usages of Portal Frames

• Large industrial Buildings
• Sports Stadiums
• Warehouses
• Train stations
• Sheds/Garages
• Halls
• etc.

General Structure - Knee Joint

• The joining between the u.b rafter usually
  consists of either a -
• Butt weld
• Hit and miss weld, or
• Fillet weld
• As well as large galvanized bolts. This solid
  join allows the live loads such as wind loads to
  be directed into the footing.

9
General Structure - Apex or Ridge

• This is the highest point in the framing. It
  is important that appropriate welds and bolts are
  used to fix this point together.

10
General Structure HD Connection Bolts

• HD bolts are set into the concrete footings
  of the slab. The columns then slip over the top
  of these and are bolted in place. The bolts are
  then welded tight so they cant undo. The
  exposed bolts and base of the column are then
  encased in concrete up to the level of the slab
  floor, sealing them in.

11
Cladding

• Alucobond has been an option for cladding in
  our building. This product is a light material
  and is easy to work with as well as flexible and
  smooth. This product is made up of two aluminium
  sheets and an inside of plastic. Its weather
  resistant and shock resistant witch makes is a
  perfect material for external cladding.
• It comes in a standard thickness of 4mm but
  can be requested at sizes ranging from 3 to 6mm.
  Its standard sizes are 1000, 1250, 1500 by
  3200mm and it can be requested to a max width of
  1575 and length of 8000mm. It comes in a range
  of up to 24 different colours witch you can
  requested on order. The product has to meet
  Australian Standards 1530 when regarding
  insulation and fire protection. Other additional
  products include Alucobond Plus (one side
  stove-lacquered finished) and Alucobond A2 (one
  side stove lacquered).

Roofing Members

• C Purlins run from rafter to rafter, fixed by
  four bolt cleats which are welded to the rafters
  and bolted to the purlins.
• Fly bracing is also used to strengthen the C
  purlins connection with the rafters. This helps
  with resistance against wind uplift and other
  live loads.

Roofing Members

• Over the purlins we lay safety mesh before
  placing insulation over the mesh. The safety
  mesh is connected to the purlins using Tech
  screws and washers.
• The insulation used is industrial glasswool
  with thermal foil underside.

Roof Cladding
High tensile steel roof sheeting is used for our
roof cladding. It is lightweight has good
spanning capability and is resilient to rough
conditions. It requires four fasteners per sheet
to perform to its required standard. The sheets
are connected using waterproof tech screws which
drill into the purlins.

Pre-cast Panels

• The reason why we chose this system is
  because of the following points
• Easiness of erection thus saving on labour costs
• Its pre fabricated therefore increasing product
  quality, simplicity and time
• Used as a structural element
• Elements can be reproduced with ease due to
  per-fabricated forme work

Pre-cast hollow core flooring

• Our design incorporates the use of hollow
  core floor slabs because -
• Easiness of erection thus saving on labour costs
• Its pre fabricated therefore increasing product
  quality, simplicity and time
• Used as a structural element
• Elements can be reproduced with ease due to
  per-fabricated forme work
• Lightness benefiting to span ratio
