Project Details:
Wall Steel won the tender for Tesco Extra Wexford which was to be delivered within a short timeframe. With the time restraints of the project the specified 1016mm grade beams could not be delivered from the mills. To overcome this, Wall Steel redesigned the entire first floor steelwork to eliminate these 50 beams. This re-design was approved by all involved and facilitated the continuation of the project to programme.
