"Exceeding Expectations at Weston Milling"


An initial forensic inspection on a warehouse building identified a number of structural deficiencies including severe deterioration of parts of the building that required urgent rectification, primarily affecting their warehouse and distribution network.

The client's initial internal advice and estimates were suggesting an unacceptable timeframe for downtime of this critical business element.

FMG Engineering was engaged to investigate and facilitate an approach to drastically reduce the time the warehouse was under repair. From approval to proceed, design documentation was produced in a staged manner from three weeks with Development Approvals being gained for the initial stages within six weeks.

FMG Engineering facilitated a team to deliver methodology, design, documentation and construction of works with the warehouse being unavailable for only six months. We also assisted the client in securing temporary facilities for the duration of the works.

FMG Engineering's pro-active approach led to a rapid solution to a complex set of problems, far exceeding Weston Milling's expectations.

Testimonial

"When MAURI anz needed to demolish and rebuild a stone warehouse in Adelaide, we asked FMG Engineering to provide structural engineering support to the project. From the outset, FMG Engineering gave great advice on everything from the initial emergency propping of the warehouse, to the complete rebuild of the facility. The outcome was a demolition and construction project that was finished to a high specification, on time, and to a very tight budget. FMG Engineering's involvement was much wider than structural engineering. I have no doubt that without their input we would not have got such good value for money for an activity, that as a food company, we rarely conduct. I would enlist FMG Engineering's support again in a heartbeat."
