Built for
Emirates Airlines this 1300 tonne Air Cargo Terminal is part of Dubai
Airport Air Cargo Village. |
The
Cargo Terminal was designed at very short notice. The original
consultants had taken nine months to design
and
specify
the building. This left
REIDsteel
only twelve weeks to redesign the whole complex, buy and fabricate the
steel and dispatch it to Dubai, in order to meet the deadline.
 Inspite
of the tremendous achievements of
REID
design engineers, draughtsmen and fabricators
and
the need to galvanize the steel, made the deadline very nearly
unachievable. The first 75 tonnes were therefore dispatched by air in an Antonov via Paris. All of the construction targets were met.
The
hangar was erected by a local construction company. We also designed and
manufactured a
twin airbus hangar for Emirates Airlines the previous year. |
