At the former military airport in Brustem, a gatehouse and new aircraft hangar symbolise the future of the fledgling drone industry. The facade and roof of the shed are both made of metal sandwich panels and form a single whole, whilst preformed steel plates are used for the curves in the ridges. The decision to use spatial steel truss structures was driven by the need for a large area free of supporting columns to stable the aircraft. The building is made up of two main volumes in the form of two porticoes of lattice girders converging on a central column. The 6,650 m2 hangar will therefore only have one central row of columns, for which a W-profile lattice structure has been chosen. The top and bottom rail are made of rolled H-profiles in HEA180 and HEA200 respectively, whilst internal members are square box sections (90/4; 100/4; 120/4). Steel grade S235 was used as standard, except for the bottom rail of the main trusses which is in S275.

Henco Industries, a producer of pipes and fittings for the sanitary and heating trade, was growing fast and needed its own distribution centre. The company wanted to make its daily operations as sustainable, efficient and innovative as it possibly could. A hybrid design made up of concrete columns and steel trusses was selected and the efficient new warehouse was built in record time close to the production plant. To reduce the number of columns and maximise the available storage space, the support columns were spaced 24 m apart, resulting in a building with a storage area of 12,510 m² capable of holding no less than 21,500 pallets. The building comprises a steel deck, sandwich panels with a concrete plinth and a super-flat concrete floor that incorporates an induction loop for forklift trucks. A total of 360 tonnes of S235 and S355 steel were used in the project, part of which was treated with fire-resistant paint to give a fire resistance of 120 min.
