Regional Trade Distribution Centre
Nestled within the Wellcamp Business Park, Queensland's second Regional Trade Distribution Centre (RTDC) reached completion in 2021, marking a significant milestone in enhancing access to international markets for local agricultural producers. Boasting a sprawling floor area of 4000m2, the facility is equipped with state-of-the-art amenities including 1500m2 of refrigerated storage, freezer rooms, and meticulously controlled transit areas, along with expansive external storage spaces.
Our journey with this project began when we were entrusted with providing Civil Design Services for the internal roads and Services Infrastructure across the entirety of the Wellcamp Business Park. Collaborating closely with stakeholders, our Civil Engineering team designed a Concept Road network that would seamlessly integrate with the precinct's overarching vision. Following the determination of concept alignments, detailed design was undertaken for the infrastructure provisions, mostly within 12D Model and AutoCAD.
Within the confines of the site, our team spearheaded the Civil and Hydraulic works essential for the facility's functionality. This encompassed everything from road and carpark design to the intricate water supply and stormwater drainage infrastructure, as well as Local Authority Applications.
Throughout the design and documentation phase, close collaboration with the Wagner Corporation project team ensured alignment with construction timelines, facilitating a smooth and efficient execution. As construction commenced, our role expanded to include on-site support, providing invaluable assistance to both Wagner Corporation and the construction team.
Complexities included ensuring compliance with Aerodrome requirements for the RTDC's proximity to the Airport, optimising space within the confines of the security fencing for fire truck movements, and sizing pipes to accommodate the site's expansive infrastructure demands. Furthermore, the size and nature of the building necessitated specialised fire service requirements, adding an additional layer of complexity that our team tackled with unwavering enthusiasm.
Thrilled to contribute to the development of this world-class export facility, we are proud to play a role in bolstering Queensland's export capabilities and fostering local economic growth. Beyond mere infrastructure, this project stands as a testament to our commitment to community enrichment and sustainable progress, underscoring our dedication to creating lasting value for both our local community and economy alike.
