| 101 T T Richard Loader Hitting the sweet spot While Coresteel Buildings can range from 100sqm up to any size, the sweetspot for the Hawke’s Bay/Gisborne team is in the 1500sqm – 2500sqm range. Corebuild Group BUILDING Coresteel Buildings’ product is innovative and a game changer says Alan Cusack, General Manager for Hastings’ Corebuild Group, whose business portfolio includes Coresteel Buildings’ Hawke’s Bay and Gisborne distribution rights. “Coresteel Buildings is the one-stop shop for commercial and industrial construction in New Zealand, and being able to offer our clients that product under our Group is a real point of difference. “The unique steel frame building systems — the Bracketless Portal System and DonoBeam (Box Beam) — offer a smarter, cleaner, more cost-effective way of building, as well as impressive clear spans of up to seventy metres without any central supports. That’s one of the biggest selling points for our bigger clients.” While Coresteel Buildings can range from 100sqm up to any size, the sweetspot for the Hawke’s Bay/Gisborne team is in the 1500sqm – 2500sqm range. “That’s where the greatest need is in this region. Our client sectors are very diverse and include transport, storage and distribution, food, developers, rural, with a number of bluechip international brands.” While Coresteel’s speed of erection is a key client benefit, Alan adds that the DonoBeam‘s innovative design reduces the amount of steel needed, with high bending resistance and optimal torsional stiffness. “We know that sustainability and the environmental impact are very important for our clients and one of our goals is to reduce the amount of carbon that the construction industry produces. Coresteel Buildings’ offers the opportunity to do just that.” Early client discussions held on the building site play a key part in identifying any potential issues and specific site requirements, and those discussions may also include the architect. “From concept to completion, we will be by the client’s side throughout the journey, and provide the complete construction package, tailored to the clients’ needs. Coresteel is the client’s designer, engineer, manufacturer, builder and quality controller all in one.

All fabrication is carried out in Structural Fabricators’ Hastings engineering shop. Born and bred in the Hawke’s Bay, Shane had amassed several years in the building sector and a wealth of knowledge in the construction sector before adding Coresteel Buildings Hawke’s Bay to his business portfolio in 2016. Coresteel Buildings’ projects now account for eighty percent of the Group’s work. The business offers in-house Architectural Design, Engineering and Delivery tailored to any project need. Acknowledging the key role that subcontractors play in every project, Alan says Coresteel Hawke’s Bay/Gisborne has been working with the same group of subcontractors for several years, forging trusted relationships over that time. “Our client sectors are very diverse and include transport, storage and distribution, food, developers, rural, with a number of blue-chip international brands.”
