Main construction compound
Main construction compounds are strategic construction hubs for core project management (engineering, planning and construction delivery), commercial and administrative staff associated with the construction of a project. They will include an area for equipment and materials storage, as well as providing main welfare facilities for construction staff, with some compounds also providing overnight sleeping accommodation for construction staff.
