This two-year-old versatile prefabricated building was designed to be dismantled and reused and was originally built and commissioned in 34 days!
- It was carefully dismantled and the materials packed onto pallets, into stillages or into shipping containers for easy transport and storage.
- It comes with all architectural, framing, paneling, structural, electrical, mechanical, and fire protection drawings plus marked-up drawings showing the locations of the customized components with corresponding individually numbered labels on the components to help with the reconstruction of the building.
The building is constructed from prefabricated steel wall frames and roof trusses and clad in Colourbond steel. Internal walls are lined with individual insulated “cool-room type” wall panels. Formwork plywood timber flooring over steel subfloor. Doors are solid timber with steel frames. Complete ducted and zoned air conditioning system, fire protection system, and electrical system included.
- The 3x 20’ and 8x 40’ shipping containers are high-quality single prior use/trip ones and are included in the sale price.
- The package only excludes wiring/cabling/pipework, vinyl flooring and skirting, ply flooring, roof insulation blanket mesh, external landings, ramps and stairs.
The potential uses for the building include temporary mining camp, accommodation/food preparation and meals areas, office space, hostel/school group/emergency/homeless shelter/accommodation building, etc.
- The replacement cost of the materials alone would be well in excess of $2,000,000.00 (excluding prefabrication costs and supply of the shipping containers).
The building is not currently cyclone or earthquake rated, but was designed for a high wind load area and appropriate engineering and modifications could be undertaken at minimal cost.
Storage of the materials is available by negotiation with the seller, including staging of the deliveries to suit the rebuild program.
