Adanac Park Building C, Southampton

33,173 sq ft steel framed building

Mildren have completed a second design and build industrial shell and core project at Adanac Park, Southampton.

What we did
We started off raising ground level before vibro piling and laying pad foundations. The frame is steel with blockwork on the ground floor – polished pewter externally and standard blocks internally. The cladding is a Kingspan system.

The flat-deck roof is also a Kingspan system supporting a plant deck suitable for six air conditioning units. It has an access hatch within the roof with a mansafe system to facilitate maintenance of the solar PV panels powering the building.

Environmental considerations
The new unit was built next to a swale so we carefully considered materials and plant movement during design. A small woodland area between our site and a local housing estate created as an acoustic buffer which was possibly helpful during noisier works.

We achieved pre-planning conditions on an Excellent BREEAM water rating.
