Super Motor Spares Office and Warehouse

Scope of Works

Shelford Constructions delivered the new Super Motor Spares facility incorporating more than 1,900m² of warehouse space together with two-storey office accommodation.

The building was constructed predominantly from concrete tilt panels with a structural-steel roof, complemented by architectural façade treatments and contemporary internal office finishes.

The works also included specialised ground treatments required to address variable site conditions beneath the warehouse slab.

A Distinctive Industrial Facility

The Super Motor Spares facility combines the functionality of a substantial industrial warehouse with a strong architectural identity facing Railway Parade.

The front elevation is defined by red Ultrabond cladding surrounding the windows, contrasted against Monument Dominion Colorbond steel cladding. Aluminium sunshade louvres provide additional façade articulation while also serving a practical shading function.

Internally, the entrance features a high recessed ceiling complemented by coloured LED strip lighting. Glass partitioning along the first floor overlooks the reception area below, creating an open and contemporary arrival experience.

These details provide a more considered customer and workplace environment alongside the practical requirements of the adjoining warehouse.

Construction Challenges

Ground Conditions

Site conditions presented challenges during the early earthworks and concrete stages of the project.

Areas of uncontrolled and unstable soil required an engineered solution to support the warehouse slab, with steel screw piling installed beneath the concrete slab to respond to the ground conditions.

Managing Potentially Contaminated Soil

Existing soil on the site was identified as having the potential for contamination.

Appropriate safety procedures were implemented during the works to manage the risk of exposure while earthworks progressed.
