Major steel fabrication and supply company Kierbeck required a new loading platform for their factory in East London that could withstand the very heavy steel products waiting to be loaded onto trucks. The cost-effective solution was to provide a RAMWALL combined retaining and founding wall that was constructed in 1 day to allow completion of the structure within the tight time constraints imposed by the production and delivery schedules set by the factory.
