Project Overview
GIWU Construction delivered a 1200 square metre steel warehouse facility for BF Ghana in Aveyime. The project encompassed complete structural steel design, fabrication, erection, and site coordination, resulting in a modern industrial storage facility ready for immediate operational use.
The warehouse was designed to accommodate high-volume storage and distribution operations, with a clear span design maximizing usable floor space and operational flexibility.
Challenge & Solution
Challenge: The client required a large-scale warehouse facility with a tight delivery timeline. The site presented logistical challenges including limited access and the need for precise coordination between fabrication and erection phases.
Solution: GIWU's integrated approach combined off-site fabrication with on-site erection coordination. Our team managed material logistics, sequenced deliveries to match erection schedules, and coordinated with local contractors to ensure smooth site operations. This approach reduced on-site delays and maintained the project timeline.
