Case Study
A large scale and complex phased project, involving the repair of external facades, stone repairs, pitched and flat roof replacements, located in a Conservation Area for a Grade II Listed Building. Inspections included roof and façade, drone inspection of slate work, delaminated stonework, & brickwork. Surveys including providing samples of approved stone repair methods, and roof slate sampling.
Co-ordination included pavement and hoarding planning and local authority applications for highway and footway temporary closures.
Specification, sampling and approval of materials and time delays relating to Local Authority responses.
Sequencing of works and project phasing to ensure Business Continuity was unaffected
Phasing and working methods for activities carried out during term-time to ensure Student Experience was unaffected
Additional works carried out to boilers, flues and roof level services to make use of complex scaffolding installation
Costs were controlled by utilising a prime cost sum for accelerated scaffold removals during non-term dates to provide flexibility of approach in the decommissioning stages of each phase with lessons learnt
A ‘soft landings’ approach was adopted to the completion of each phase of work with in-use building information relating to stone repair methods and warranties for lightning conductor installations was provided in advance of each staged completion milestone
