NZ Windows

The Project

The NZ Windows warehouse is a key development located in the Te Rapa Gateway industrial subdivision. This project involves the construction of a 3,400 sqm warehouse and 440 sqm office designed to support the operational needs of NZ Windows.

The project team, including Calder Stewart and Te Rapa Gateway, worked closely to deliver a practical and efficient facility that meets NZ Windows’ requirements.

Our Role

HD Geo was engaged to provide geotechnical expertise throughout the development process. Our contributions included:

• Site Investigation

  • Conducted investigations, including hand auger and CPT testing, to support the foundation design

• Geotechnical assessment and reporting

  • The geotechnical assessment for the development included liquefaction, static settlement and bearing capacity for the structure.

  • Reporting to support building consent application and detailed design for the structure

• Subgrade and Backfill Testing

  • Ensured subgrade and backfill materials met a bearing capacity of 300 kPa, providing a stable foundation for the warehouse and office structures.

• Project Team Collaboration

  • Partnered with the project team to maintain clear communication and ensure that the foundation designs supported the building loads and purpose.

  • Working alongside the project team to ensure a smooth design and construction process.

The Results

The NZ Windows warehouse stands out as a impressive structure within the industrial subdivision. Its successful completion highlights our commitment to delivering well, by providing smart solutions with no surprises.
