Temporary Buildings On Uneven Ground


If you’ve considered having one of our temporary buildings and dismissed the idea due to sloping or uneven ground where you were looking to have it installed - don’t! At least, not until you’ve read this.
You see, it’s very rare the ground our buildings are installed upon, is totally flat, so if you have considered an area at your own premises but have written the idea off because the ground is very uneven, there’s a simple (cost-effective)way around it.
Here is how: If you look closely at the pictures above, you’ll see there’s actually a severe slope running across the width of the building.
So here’s what we did: Andy, our manufacturing guru (we normally keep him under lock and key) went to the site and measured the area using his latest electronic laser level.
Specifically, he measured the levels of the surface around the perimeter of the building, and then (cleverly) cut each and every upright at specific lengths so the building stands square, even though the surface is totally uneven.
Then, (and I can’t claim the glory for this) the client brought in a company to lay a sub-structured floor, as shown below:

Flooring Sub-structure |
Finished Flooring Surface |
And the results are amazing. To think, they could have gone to the expense of having the area concreted and new drainage systems installed, but no…..
They’ve managed to overcome the problem at a fraction of the cost.
And although in the interests of confidentiality, the client has asked to remain nameless, in sending these pictures to me, he also wrote:
“I’d like to take this opportunity to say how impressed we have been with the services you have provided us from the planning stage of the project, fabrication, through to installation.
Nothing has been to much trouble for your team. The building itself gives us that valuable extra space we were looking for and looks great.
Please give all your team involved a big thanks from ........................... It’s been a pleasure working with you guys now and in the future I’m sure”.
So, if you’ve got a surface at your premises and thought, there’s no way; don’t dismiss it out of hand, because Jason and Andy and their team will work out a solution for you too.
And best of all, you won’t have to lift a finger. Just give us the ground, and we’ll do the rest.
There’s every chance we’ll be able to find a way around the problem, I’m sure, so by all means, give me a call or an email if you want to discuss anything that’s on your mind.

PS – In the picture above you will see we also supplied
2.5mtr extension to enable vehicles to reverse up and unload
to protect the goods as they are unloaded. Another good idea.
PPS – These pictures were taken during the installation and
after this picture was taken, an access ramp was fitted to the
front of the building.
PPPS – I was asked specifically NOT to divulge the client’s name on this occasion.
