Pioneers in circular construction

Construction of MAD4 data center. 12 customer rooms with a total white space of 8,000 m². 3 storeys above ground level of 6,000 m² plus another one with rooftop installations added + 5,500 m² underground. Capacity for 34 MW (fully-equipped power). Precast concrete structure.

Construcía has carried out various projects for Primark. An example of which is the construction of the flagship store in Plaza Cataluña, Barcelona. Work was done both in the sales area and in the staff area: partition walls for dividing up spaces and rooms, installation of flooring, painting of surfaces, installation of lightboxes, mechanical and electrical installations, installation of changing rooms, checkout counters... – The Lean methodology was applied, based on extensive pre-planning, the optimisation of productive time and the specific scheduling of just-in-time deliveries. – Thorough preparation of each activity, seamless communication among all parties and constant improvement. Precise coordination of all those involved. – Project executed in phases. With the application of Lean Construction, we managed to optimise material, human and economic resources.

Thanks to work methodology and planning, the work was delivered one week before the agreed time: – Daily planning with Pull Sessions with the associate suppliers; control of stocks, circulations, waste materials. – Development of a quality control system in the factory and in receiving prior to installation. – Deliveries with zero rework management. – Day and night shifts for minimal interruption of hotel operation.

Our construction of an insulated industrial building, for use as a vehicle dealership and workshop. With the application of Lean2Cradle® methodology detailed planning of the work and an exhaustive selection of the materials was obtained, incorporating the principles of sustainable construction (Cradle to Cradle). Thanks to it the BREEAM certificate  on sustainable construction was obtained.

Despite the difficulty of carrying out a project with several companies involved, Construcía led the general coordination and ensured that the work was delivered in the established periods.

The Project consists of the establishment of offices on 8 floors. As it is very repetitive work, Lean Construction methodology is proposed from the start. In the Pull Sessions with the most important suppliers the target is set of completing each floor in 8 weeks. Thanks to the detailed planning of Lean and the shipping logistics, a large part of the work is done in the shop, thus eliminating on-site downtime and the entire assembly is accelerated.
