Data Centre Infrastructure Partners

Data Centre Infrastructure Partners

Castle and Pryor are your perfect Data Centre Infrastructure partner. Using our electrical or battery powered machinery and utilising diamond cutting technology, we can drill, cut, breakout, dig and remove spoil generated to prepare reinforced concrete structures. Using our various services, we can partner with you to help create the ideal space and environment for your data centre, helping to move it from conception to operational.

We can:

• Form accurate and precise chases and recesses to accept Data Centre services.
• Form trenches to accept power, data, drainage and air conditioning services.
• Provide fixing and anchor load testing.
• Provide various Floor Preparation services preparing surfaces for new floor systems.
• With a fully electric or battery powered fleet of plant and equipment, we are capable of completing any environmentally sensitive internal works without the risk of toxic fumes build up.
• We pride ourselves on our Health and Safety record and demand all our works are completed to a high health and safety standard.  We continue to invest heavily in remote controlled, autonomous equipment, allowing the operator to be removed from manual handling heavy tasks and from the point of work and potentially hazardous environments.
• All our operatives are trained to NVQ Level 2 standards, as set out by the Construction Industry Training Board.
• During early planning and design stages, using our Vac-Ex excavation services, we can safely find and identify existing services, avoiding potentially disruptive and expensive service strikes.

Forming chases

We can create accurate and precise chases and recesses in your floors and walls to accept electrical, data, fire and alarm service cabling. We can provide this service with complete dust control using dust vac units using Hepa 3 filters technology. Utilising our robotic demolition equipment, floor chases and recesses can be broken out remotely avoiding HAV exposure tor the operators.

Forming Trenches

We can form trenches and rebates in floors to accept new or redirect existing services such as HV power, drainage, data cabling, and air conditioning. Using our fully electrical or battery powered equipment we can form the trench using 3-phase powered floor saws and breakout the concrete within the trench using a 3-phase powered robotic demolition machine. Then we can dig out the spoil and soft substrate below the slab using battery powered 360 machines and remove the soil using our battery powered walk behind dumpers.

Forming Holes/Coring

We can form any size hole in concrete or masonry with minimum disruption, utilising our diamond drilling equipment. Holes can be formed accurately, cleanly and without disturbance to surrounding structures. Holes linked together in a stitch drilled pattern can be used to form irregular shaped openings and apertures in deep structures/materials. Combined with our fixing supply, fit and pull testing services we can drill the hole, install the fixing and test to ensure meets required standard. Ideal for fixing hand rails, equipment bases, balustrades and base plates.

Pull Testing

Design Stage – Preliminary / Ultimate Load testing

We can provide load testing to a specific rating or to failure. This will establish the specification of fixing required and allow changes to be made before build/installation stage.

Installation Stage – Proof Load testing

After installation and to meet build regulations and specifications, fixings and/or anchors will often require inspection and testing by an approved independent contractor. Consequently, we can fulfil this and attend site at short notice and test a given percentage to ensure design specifications are met. If they pass, we can provide test certificates to allow project sign offs.

Floor Preparation

We offer various forms of floor preparation, including Planing, Grinding and Shot Blasting. These techniques, when applied, leave a clean, textured and uncontaminated floor surface ready to accept new floor finishes.

Using our Demolition Robots, we can remove screed floor coverings quickly and efficiently avoiding HAV exposure. Any area well adhered areas of screed or membranes found below the screed can be removed using either Floor Planning or Grinding techniques.
