REFURBISHMENT OF PARK

The unit was an empty shell with an existing office and staircase.

A mezzanine was constructed out of steel and chipboard decking, fire rated underneath. There was a new wall of 12 meters high to construct which had to be fire rated, this was a difficult job due to the height of the wall, 1 hour fire rating and the deflection of the roof at the top. All new electrics, fire alarm, comms and mechanical to include hot & cold-water air cone to the rooms. The main works shop has radiant gas heaters along with a specialized extraction for the exhaust from the lorries.
