The scope of works (to both levels) included the complete demolition of the existing floor plan to create a new floor set out. This involved providing new meeting room spaces, breakout areas, research and laboratory classrooms along with new utility facilities. Floor finishes and paint finishes, wall panelling and joinery units were also included.
Project highlights included a Lego wall, a vertical garden and Décor ceiling panels. Existing electrical, mechanical, AV and hydraulic services were removed and reinstated to suit the new facility layout. Inoperable lifts in the building presented complications when gaining site access. Drawing on national work health, safety and environment (WHSE) resources, our project team managed the installation of a four storey scaffold system to the external façade. Once secured, all windows were removed to safely put in place a hoist to transport tools and construction materials to the site.
