Steel supports automation industry

Steelwork has been completed on a new three storey office block at the Routeco Business Park in Milton Keynes.

Working on behalf of main contractor Winvic Construction, Caunton Engineering erected 235t of structural steelwork for the project.

This is Caunton’s second contract on the business park having previously erected another office block in 2000.

The park is being developed by Routeco, one of the UK’s leading suppliers of industrial control and automation products.

The latest beam and column structure is a three storey building offering 4,110m² of office space. The £6M block provides open plan offices with full height glazing to maximise the use of natural daylight. The building has also achieved a ‘Very Good’ BREEAM rating.
