The existing plant required a warehouse. In keeping with a master plan, the first step involved erecting a hall measuring 13 × 40 meters positioned adjacent to the delivery bay. The minimized steel construction spanning 11 meters is facilitated by its arched form. On the building’s long sides the roof surface stops short of the ground to allow light into the building. The hall is accessible from both ends, easing access to the neutral storage space.
