Recently, a valued customer approached us needing additional space around an existing DCU for new process equipment. After surveying the area and exploring the options, we came to one conclusion — the only way was up.
Our design team produced a range of concepts for the customer to review. Following detailed discussions, the solution you see here was selected.
A heavy-duty raised platform, designed to support over 6 metric tonnes of equipment, while fitting into a very tight space — making both fabrication and installation a challenge.
Backed by independent third-party calculations, this was exactly the kind of challenge Shephard and Sons Engineering was more than ready to take on.
If you need additional space, improved access, or structural steel solutions — look no further.
