Project Overview
The scale and complexity of the Sheerness Cement Terminal project demanded detailed planning, seamless coordination and expert execution.
Burden Bros Construction Ltd worked as part of a highly coordinated delivery team, supporting the installation of major structural steel packages across the terminal. The works were carried out in a logistically demanding dockside environment, where safety, precision and programme control were essential throughout.
The project involved a wide range of steelwork installations, including access walkways, silo structures, strengthening works, support walls, external pipe bridges, support frames and associated structural elements.
A full project video is also available to show the scale of the works completed.
