Wernick Buildings


The Concept


The Rapidplan™ 3000 building system is based on modules 3.00m wide and unit lengths of 6.00m to 12.00m.  The steel frame modules are linked side-to-side, and/or end-to-end to form the building.
Two and three storey buildings are created by stacking the modules, which incorporate their own steel frame, without the need for any additional structural supports.



Walls
The external walls are manufactured 'off line' and are of composite panel construction.  This method of fabrication forms a sandwich in which all the components are bonded in a press.  This type of construction ensures high quality throughout and produces a wall panel with excellent impact resistance.  The walls can be clad in a variety of finishes, or can be used to form as inner skin to a traditional brickwork finish.

Doors
Standard doors fitted are of painted softwood for external use and self finished for internal use. 
Aluminium doors are available.

Roofs
Roof options are of cost effective warm deck structure, finished in profiled steel, or traditional truss construction for tiles.  In both cases the building is delivered to site in  a weatherproof condition to enable finishing trades on site to complete their work without the usual delays that can be encountered on a building site using traditional building methods.

Internal Partitions
Internal walls are also manufactured 'off-line' which helps achieve a shorter build time.  The panels consist of self finished plasterboard bonded onto timber frames.  Sound-deadening infills and linings are incorporated as required.  Traditional 'tape & fill' finish for paintings also available.
Floors
Floors are laid on steel floor joists and incorporate rigid insulation giving a good level of thermal protection.

Electrical installations
Electrical installations are, where possible, fitted in the factory prior to delivery using standard fittings and wired in accordance with current I.E.E. Regulations.

Plumbing Installations
All plumbing within building sections is installed prior to delivery using white vitreous sanitary-ware and complies with current regulations.

Heating Installations
Heating is provided by 2 0r 3 kW wall mounted, thermostatically controlled, convector heaters.  Options include wet central heating systems, climate control, or recessed radiant heating panels.
