Summary of how they would envisage assembly of balconies to work (e.g. we would use 5000 sq foot for the assembly of the initial cassettes and then the decking and glazing and final assembly processes would be done in a separate adjacent area of 5000 sq foot. Handling would be mainly using the overhead gantries until complete where we would use a telehandler forklift).companies MUST Have an initial explanation of how they would do this.
