When the client personally congratulates our construction team, and subsequently the construction manager as the head of EGEIN in the execution phase, he is actually thanking the work carried out by the entire team behind it and that is not visible to him, but which is vitally important for the success of the project.

Our client is happy with the leaves and fruits of the tree, but he does not see the branches or the trunk that makes up the rest of the team, much less the roots of the tree that make up the resources, processes and internal organization of EGEIN that are the result. of the specialization and accumulated experience, from the engineering and technical design office, calculation and optimization of technical solutions, manufacturing and logistics, execution and assembly, to the economic and administrative management associated with the turnkey execution of the entire construction process. industrial design and construction in a VUCA environment, as complex as the

From EGEIN we want to share the success story in the turnkey design and construction of a building divided into 4 industrial and office premises for rent in France, which we have just completed recently, with the explicit congratulations of our client, who has reiterated to us effusively after handing over the keys to the completely finished building just 6 months after presenting our comprehensive proposal for the technical and economic solution.

Our intervention in the project has gone far beyond the construction of an industrial building for rent. We have participated in the design of the architecture and integral functionality of the work, optimizing the construction costs of a building divided into 4 independent premises, with mezzanines for offices with prestressed systems without intermediate pillars, through a stable and prefabricated concrete structure and dividers. fire resistant.

We can conclude that by optimizing the design phase, we have managed to reduce our client’s costs and minimize the execution time of the work to make it available to its tenants and improve the profitability of our client’s investment, at the same time. which has delegated the entire process from the beginning to the handing over of the keys to the EGEIN team, being able to allocate the valuable time of its partners to the development of its own activity, unrelated to the construction of its promotion.

Having designed and built a factory in the cosmetic chemical sector in France with ICPE classification in 2003, and 20 years later, our client has once again entrusted us with comprehensive engineering and construction services for its strategic growth, delegating all its trust in our equipment to design and build turnkey its new factory, which will allow an operational improvement and growth of its production and distribution capacity for its expansion and international positioning in its sector.

After having optimized the technical solution to resolve the functional problems of the different operational areas of R&D, production, logistics and administration through the multidisciplinary work of engineering and technical office, we will soon begin the turnkey construction works, with the renewed enthusiasm in our client's teams and management committee.

Transvisa-DHL has trusted EGEIN, Engineering & Construction to carry out the turnkey engineering and construction of a logistics platform with 11,000 m² of operational surface in Igualada (Barcelona). This facility will have an optimized storage height of 12 meters and will be equipped with 18 loading docks, as well as modern corporate offices.

One of the highlights of this project, and due to the low-capacity load-bearing characteristics of the terrain, detected through the geotechnical study, has been the design and execution of the 7m deep foundation work using prefabricated piles by driving, with a real-time control system on site by carrying out Dynamic Load Tests with the Pile Driving Analyzer (A.H.P.), as a systematic control of the piling. These tests allow, in a rapid and non-destructive way on final piles, to analyze both the ground conditions and the development of the driving, controlling the integrity of the pile and its differentiated load capacity in the shaft and tip. This technique not only ensures the structural stability of the building, but also reinforces the “turnkey” concept, demonstrating our ability to carry out each stage of the project and work with maximum precision and efficiency.

Another important challenge has been the construction of retaining walls on the plot, which reach an impressive height of more than 9 meters. We have chosen to use prefabricated concrete systems with variable depth and buttresses. Through the design and execution of this construction system we have not only managed to improve safety on site, but we have also significantly reduced the deadlines in the execution phase, avoiding the assembly of scaffolding, formwork, shoring or other traditional construction systems. , while we have provided a high-quality finish that complements the entire installation.

Through this containment work, with a meticulous approach and the technical specialization and experience that characterizes our engineering and construction teams, we have achieved for our client the maximum use of the surface of the plot, which had a considerable initial unevenness.

Solution Offered: EGEIN’s proposal combined experience in “turnkey” engineering and construction to achieve excellence in results with the most demanding standards in the logistics sector.

Awarded as 1ª BEST CLUB FRANCE and 21ª BEST CLUB WORD at the Golden Moon Awards given by the prestigious INTERNATIONAL NIGHTLIFE ASSOTIATION in its THE WORLD’S 100 BEST CLUBS ranking.

The property of the prestigious chain of nightclubs worldwide has relied on our teams from the design and project of the building to the turnkey construction for a extension consisting of 3 floors for the public, a performance area for DJs and artists, bars, dressing rooms and offices.

We are proud to have had the trust of the prestigious firm to take on the challenge to carry out this work with high design requirements for architectural integration in the environment and high technical requirements, such as the groundwater level of seawater and very unfavorable conditions of the land because the work is in the middle of the commercial port “L’île Des Loisirs”, as well as the conditions for execution in a very short period of time short and that we are respecting without deviations in the planned planning.

When, after assembling the structure for two industrial overhead cranes, the manufacturer calls us to congratulate us, because he had NEVER before found another work with all the corbels perfectly level, it reinforces the reliability and professionalism of the work perfectly executed by our construction and assembly teams.

As an engineering and construction company, at EGEIN we know that the design and execution of foundation systems are critical aspects to guarantee the safety and durability of the industrial buildings we build.

  The first step in the design of a foundation system is to carry out a geotechnical study to analyze the characteristics of the subsoil and determine the structural resistance of the different layers of the ground. Based on the results obtained, we can choose the most appropriate foundation solution and calculate its dimensioning, applying the necessary safety factors.

  In industrial construction, we try to prioritize the use of superficial foundation systems using footings, since it is the most economical solution and with the shortest execution time. However, depending on the depth and resistance of the load-bearing layers, semi-deep systems or deep foundations using piling can be used.

  At #EGEIN, we have extensive experience in the design, calculation and execution of different foundation systems. For example, in the industrial construction works currently underway in Vilablareix, Narbonne and Béziers we have opted for a shallow foundation using chalice footings, while in the extension of a nightclub in the port of Cap d'Agde we have chosen a superficial foundation with a mechanical screw system due to the presence of the seawater level in the vicinity of the foundation. In the construction of a logistics platform in Igualada, on the other hand, we have opted for a deep foundation using piling, to support the loads of the building on the resistant layer.

  The choice of the foundation system is crucial in the construction of industrial buildings. At EGEIN, we make sure to carry out an adequate geotechnical study to choose, design and calculate the optimal solution, guaranteeing the safety, durability and cost efficiency and execution times of the
industrial, logistic and commercial buildings that we build.
