Bol.com’s new distribution centre in Waalwijk was completed in July, currently the (mechanical) fit-out is being finalised after which the first packages are expected to roll off the conveyor belt in 2021. Pelecon was involved early on by architecture and engineering firm DENC in designing a suitable structural design for the automated systems and to select the high-rise racking. “Based on this structural design as well as DENC’s aesthetic design, we advised, calculated and modelled the foundation and steel structure for the new building,” says Pelecon structural engineer Bastiaan Hoefnagel.

New building NewLogic III, Tilburg
An award for the best new-build, remodelling or renovation project in the Netherlands or abroad that is carried out entirely or partly in steel: not just any award! We won that prize! The ‘New Logic III’ project in Tilburg met all the requirements that a steel award winner must meet in the “Industrial Building” category.
The National Steel Prize has existed since 1971 and is awarded every two years to five projects within five categories. These are: non-residential construction, industrial construction, residential construction, infrastructure and characteristic steel building components. Eligible projects must, among other things, be made entirely or partly of steel. The winning project New Logic III met all the requirements!
