Project description

Production building (and ancillary works) for an industrial platform for R&D and the clinical and commercial manufacture of advanced therapy products (ATMPs).

INEXOM designed the steel structure and envelope:

  • Calculations, general and detailed structural steel drawings (including fabrication and installation files)

  • Layout of pans and reinforcement studies for the composite floor

  • Design, layout and detailing of roofing and cladding

Challenges to meet

The main challenges of the project were :
  • Consideration of the constraints of the various lots in a highly constrained environment inside the building (e.g. minimum clear height to be respected between levels: strong constraint on assemblies)

  • Numerous floor types (with different thicknesses) on the same level

  • Work for different customers on the same project and a single digital model

  • Special cladding complex with special supports required

The benefits of using BIM and Trimble solutions :
  • Easier management of interfaces (civil engineering, process equipment, HVAC, etc.) with various parties working in parallel

  • Simplified exchanges thanks to the visualization and sharing of information throughout the project (integration of IFCs from third-party lots and export of IFCs from our own lots)

  • Smoother management of the structure/envelope interface thanks to the organization: INEXOM was in charge of the 2 studies.

Our pride and joy:

To have participated in the construction of a pharmaceutical production plant in France dedicated to new gene therapies.
