Extension and refurbishment of industrial refrigeration building

Success story: extension and refurbishment of a refrigerated industrial building in Barcelona

We present a relevant success story that shows our experience in engineering and architecture in Barcelona. In collaboration with a key client, we carried out the extension and refurbishment of a refrigerated industrial building in Mercabarna.

The technical challenge:

This project was a technical challenge from the outset, since theexisting warehouse could not stop its operation, because of its key role in the developer's logistics. This meant that both the architectural design and site management had to be conceived in phases to ensure continuous operation.

Expansion and renovation in phases:

First, the construction of the extended part, which covered approximately 2,500.00 m², was carried out. A deep foundation (piling) and a prefabricated structure were implemented to minimise construction times. The façade cladding was carefully selected to integrate perfectly with the existing part, creating a unified image for the entire complex.

Once construction of the extension has been completed, a complex phasing plan was designed to connect the new logistics area with the existing hall. This process was carried out efficiently and accurately, ensuring a smooth transition.

The successful outcome:

We achieved our customer's goal of having a refrigerated area of more than 5,000.00 m² in record time. This expansion and renovation not only optimised the storage capacity, but also improved the efficiency of the logistics operation.
