Construction of 40.000 m 2 concrete<br />

hardenings Lidl - Southamton (UK)<br />

Client:<br />

Bouwbedrijf Van de Ven<br />

Implementation period: 2016<br />

Outside our national borders, in the South-England port<br />

of Southampton, construction company Van de Ven<br />

realised a distribution centre for supermarket chain Lidl.<br />

DEN OUDEN GROEP provided 40,000 m² of concrete road<br />

construction consisting of a ring road, a loading dock,<br />

and parking spaces. It is one of our specialisations. The<br />

challenge with this project was mostly in the lead time,<br />

namely in terms of the production speed of the concrete<br />

mortar. In England, the capacity of concrete plants is lower<br />

than in the Netherlands. In the Netherlands, we are more<br />

focused on efficiency and shorter construction times,<br />

and we have younger plants with larger capacities. In the<br />

Netherlands, we would work with a width of 10 metres at<br />

a time, while in England we were working with a width<br />

of 5 metres at a time. A high-quality outdoor hardening,<br />

resistant to frost and road salt, making it very durable,<br />

requiring very little maintenance!<br />

Application of concrete highway - Couvin (B)<br />

Client:<br />

BAM Contractors<br />

Implementation period: 2016-<strong>2018</strong><br />

The work involved the application of two 8.6 km double<br />

lane concrete highways, including emergency lanes and<br />

ramps east of Couvin in Belgium. The highway is part of<br />

the E420, the main connection between Charleroi and the<br />

French border.<br />

Various structural works, including 190,000 m² of<br />

concrete hardenings, have been realised. The concrete<br />

hardenings consist of double-layer continuous reinforced<br />

concrete. The work of phase 1 was completed in late 2016,<br />

phase 2 in April 2017, and phase 3 will be completed<br />

in <strong>2018</strong>.<br />
