Freezer Facility Additions
This Construction Management project involved an addition to Conestoga’s existing and occupied freezer facility in Mississauga. The project consisted of a 23,000 sq ft staging area addition as well as 20,000 sq ft of high-rise freezer addition standing at 110’ high. The freezer area allows for an additional 7,000 pallets for storing product while the staging area is for the loading docks with four overhead doors and a shipping office. Special features of this construction project included: · Working at a fully operational facility · Pouring of a 30” deep concrete raft slab to support racking · Placing of hundreds of anchor bolts with tight tolerances for racking base plates · Structural support for the high-rise freezer is by the racking · Insulated panels installed directly to structural racking at 110’ · Installation of a fully automated robotic “picking system” on a super-flat monorail
