Sodevit-Gecamines Senegal<\/p>

Production hall<\/h1>

This project was made for Sodevit Gecamines. The company is a Congolese-Senegalese joint venture that is specialised in mining. One of the main goals of Sodevit is supporting the development of the industry in Senegal. The building is 40m wide, 31m long and 13m heigh. Also, an overhead crane is attached to the building structure.<\/p>

Protection from a rough environment<\/h2>

Since Sodevit has a lot of mining vehicles, they need a lot of maintenance on a regular basis. This used to be done outside, but with all the dust and the heat this was not an ideal situation. Each day, over 200 trucks are loaded with basalt which they get out of the quarry, so they need to make sure that the process always continues. This is very important in order to prevent that the supply chain is interrupted. They need to have a workshop where they can perform maintenance with ease and on fast basis on the mining vehicles and perform repairs in case of damages. The basalt quarry makes it a very dusty site, so they need to have a covered\u00a0workshop\u00a0to do all this work in a clean environment.<\/p> <\/div>

I recommend choosing a durable, high quality building which has a long lifespan. This way you can rely on the building over the years and you won\u2019t have any unexpected costs.<\/h2>
