The Project:
We are thrilled to announce the successful completion of a sophisticated grain drying store in Hereford, a project commissioned by the prestigious Duchy of Cornwall Estate. From the initial design through to practical completion, Knights led as the main contractor, handling every phase with meticulous attention to detail and engineering precision.
Works Completed:
The project began with our design of the foundations, robust concrete floors and 3.5-meter-high cast in-situ walls, crafted to withstand the demanding environment of a large-scale grain storage facility. Knights’ extensive civil and construction capabilities came into play across every aspect of the build, with our team managing the earthworks, civils, substructure, and superstructure to ensure a solid and enduring framework.
A major highlight of the project was the installation of a cutting-edge grain drying system. This advanced system employs strategically placed mesh ventilating strips, supported by pressure-treated softwood bearers, enabling efficient airflow and maintaining optimal drying conditions.
We’re pleased to report that the project was completed on schedule and to the complete satisfaction of the client. This state-of-the-art grain drying store is now fully operational, standing as a testament to our dedication to quality and client-focused service—a project truly fit for royalty!
