Reinforcing Canada's largest multi-customer logistics facility

DSV Canada’s new headquarters location in Milton, Ontario, a suburb of Canada’s largest city Toronto, is a state-of-the-art logistics facility ideally positioned to serve the Canadian business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) markets.

The challenge

 

A number of challenges existed during design and construction of this facility. It had to offer racking layout flexibility and wheeled traffic flexibility. It had to be constructed within a tight timeframe, and the overall cost of ownership had to be kept low.

Warehouse industrial and logistics companies. Commercial warehouse. Huge distribution warehouse with high shelves. Low angle view.

The solution

 

Dramix® 4D steel fibers were used to reinforce over one million square feet of this logistics facility. A fast-track schedule and large pours possible with a jointless floor system allowed the completion of the slab within just four months. This new 1.1 million square feet (equivalent to 100,000 m²) facility is now the largest multi-customer logistics facility in Canada.
