OVERVIEW

Natta were awarded subcontractor by our client, Wates Group. The work involved undertaking the full groundworks package for a new Data Centre development located at Ajax Avenue in Slough. As a result, this scheme forms an important contribution to the region’s expanding digital infrastructure, supporting the continued growth of data-driven industries.

SCOPE OF WORKS

The works on this fast-track package included earthworks, substructures, drainage and also external works. Furthermore, the project comprised three distinct data halls, requiring us to work closely with preceding and following trades to ensure seamless integration.

A large amount of service trenching and ducting were involved, which in turn had a considerable impact on logistics and interfaces with drainage and external works. As well as this, the foundations on site were deep and had large mass concrete bases that required considerable care in construction. The team delivered these works promptly and to the programme.

Overall, this project highlights Natta’s specialist capabilities in delivering technically complex, high-quality groundwork projects within demanding timeframes. The completed data centre development will, therefore, enable plenty of space for business growth and transformation initiatives. Additionally, the data centre demonstrates a strong commitment to sustainability, operating on renewable energy and running carbon-free.
