The creation of an ultra-modern Teaching Building as a new core to a long established school in Oxfordshire, has included the installation of custom designed and manufactured stainless steel sinks, worktops and splashbacks and other units from GEC Anderson for several of the different technical spaces.

 

The Tudor Hall School, originally founded in 1850 by the Rev TW and Mrs Todd at a site in Salisbury, has been at its present location at Wykham Park in Banbury since World War II, while the past decade has seen some £15 million invested in ensuring the Independent Girls Boarding and Day School offers the best possible facilities.

 

 

The Birmingham office of ADP Architects has been responsible for the design work on this latest project, while Clegg Construction Ltd of Nottingham was the main contractor carrying out the work. Acting as a specialist sub-contractor, GEC Anderson conducted site visits and liaised with the project team in order to ensure its custom fabrications met the schools health & safety as well as technical and teaching requirements.

GEC Anderson also worked closely with Tudor Hall Bursar, Neil Farquhar to ensure its site installation visits in no way interfered with the academic activities as lessons continued throughout normal term time.

One of the architects involved with the project from early on commented “The GEC Anderson sinks, work-surfaces and other fabrications were specified for the Food Technology Area as well as units for the Ceramics and Textiles rooms. The new centre opened on schedule last Easter in time for the start of the 2018 summer term and everyone involved has been pleased with the results.”

 

 

 

Introducing the new Wavin Tigris Manifolds

Visit the Wavin website

Wavin have added a new range of manifolds to their innovative Tigris Press fit range. With options for 2 to 4 ports, the range includes standard and valved options. The manifolds give easy access to install in service cupboards or accessible areas for ease of use. Additionally, the manifolds give extra flexibility meaning it can be installed under a bath for hot and cold feeds to baths, sinks, and showers.

The introduction further enhances the Wavin Tigris K5/M5 press-fit system of multilater composite pipe (MLCP) family. With a testing system, the Tigris K5/M5 has a range of benefits that make it the go-to product for plumbing installations involving drinking water, chilled water, heating systems, and underfloor heating systems. The Tigris K5/M5 is designed to prevent errors made during installation, resulting in a reliable and durable connection that has been tested beyond the requirements for a 50-year lifetime.

Pipelines have been historically tested using water pressure, a method that comes with great risk. The greatest being legionella, a water-borne bacteria that can cause a potentially fatal lung infection in those who breathe in infected water droplets. Evidence suggests that this bacteria could develop if pipes aren’t effectively dried after water-pressure testing. The on-going concern for those involved in building large-scale projects has led Wavin to help combat the issue. The Tigris K5 system uses air-pressure testing, which tests the pipes effectively without the risk of droplets developing bacteria.

The Tigris system also employs an 80-decibel pressure leak alert, which sounds a high-pitched whistle when a leak is detected – enough to be heard in the loudest environments. Designed by specialist engineers at Wavin, this is the world’s first acoustic leak alarm, setting the Tigris K5 firmly apart from any other systems on the market.

Achieving Continuity with Cold Applied Liquid Waterproofing Systems

View the Delta Membranes entry on BPindex

Technical Drawings (Structural Waterproofing) – Delta Membranes

Cold Applied Liquid Waterproofing – Delta Membranes

Casestudies – Delta Membranes

British Standard BS 8102:2022, Section 6.2.5 in particular – places emphasis on ‘Continuity of Waterproofing Protection’ advising that the waterproofing protection should be continuous from DPC level (150 mm above ground) and throughout the below ground structure.

Continuity of Waterproofing Protection from a design perspective is an important consideration, waterproofing designers are required to understand product combinations and the characteristics of systems from the outset.  Along with knowledge of product features and properties, designers are further faced with integrating these products into buildings and structures in a way that achieves a continuous and seamless waterproofing protection.

Additionally, other factors must be allowed for, such as the construction process, identifying the multitude of ways in which the waterproofing solution could be compromised and proposing methods for reducing and mitigating risk.  For new structures it is recommended that the structural design, waterproofing design, and construction processes are considered together.

Cold Applied Liquid Waterproofing Systems are becoming an increasingly popular choice not only for continuity of waterproofing but also as a sustainable construction method, due to the durability, versatility, and reliability of the products.

Benefits of waterproofing with liquid systems:

  • Seamless – filling cracks, gaps, and voids in substrates
  • Fully bonded
  • Greater ability to detail complex convoluted shapes
  • Strength and stability
  • Fast installation
  • Safe application – no need for heat
  • Rapid curing time and excellent adhesion to numerous substrates
  • Suitable for a multitude of waterproofing requirements, not only roofs
  • Compatible with other waterproofing combinations (such as external drainage and protection layers).

Each cold applied liquid waterproofing system comes with its own unique benefits, from crack-bridging to being suitable for heavily trafficked walkways.  It should be noted that cold applied liquid waterproofing is a great solution for ‘positive’ side waterproofing (external waterproofing system).

From flat cold roofs to balconies and terraces, retaining walls/basement walls to civil applications, cold applied liquid waterproofing is a great sustainable, cost-effective solution.

Delta Roof Guard

Delta Roof Guard is engineered to provide a fast curing, flexible, elastomeric solution for cold liquid applied waterproofing applications.  Delta Roof Guard CP and QC bonds directly to substrates, providing a seamless, UV-stable membrane that does not delaminate. Due to its flexible nature Delta Roof Guard follows the contours of any shape allowing for intricate detailing.  Once cured, Delta Roof Guard achieves a seamless finish with no joints or breaks. Offering rapid curing even in winter months.

Delta Roof Guard also comes with a comprehensive range of primers, all able to aid the adhesion of the liquid applied membrane system to the relevant substrates. Delta Roof Guard cold liquid waterproofing is lightweight, has great elasticity, meaning that it will absorb structural movements, whilst compensating for shrinkage or expansion due to changes in temperature. The ease and speed of application makes Delta Roof Guard Cold Liquid Waterproofing the perfect partner for complex positive side waterproofing projects.

Always Happy to Help

Whatever the needs of your project, you can rely on Delta’s Technical Team to ensure you get the right advice, support, and practical help at exactly the right time its required.  Call us today on 01992 523 523 or email info@deltamembranes.com.

Thermal Efficiency: Starting from the Top – Bilco UK

Building Products Index Ltd Uncategorized Leave a Comment

View the Bilco UK entry on BPindex

Visit the Bilco UK website

In addition to enabling safe and easy access to a roof area, whilst also providing a potential means of escape in an emergency, roof access solutions can contribute to a building’s thermal performance.

With climate change targets and sustainability putting the thermal efficiency of a building higher on a specifier’s agenda than ever before, it can’t be forgotten that the roof accounts for between 25% and 30% of all heat lost through the building envelope.

Changes to the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards came into force on 1st April – rendering non-domestic buildings unlettable unless they have an EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) rating of E or above.

In accordance with Part L2 of Building Regulations, specifiers must consider how the building envelope impacts energy consumption and the requirement to identify locations where there are opportunities for reducing energy consumption.

Whilst safety is the top priority when planning for roof access, it’s important to also consider the importance of specifying and installing the most appropriate products on the roof to prevent heat loss wherever possible.

Roof access hatches are one of the main products that allow specifiers to make a major difference to their building’s U-Value, by focusing on products which provide superior thermal performance.

A roof access hatch allows for safe access to a flat roof, where the user opens the cover of the hatch to gain access to the roof. A roof access hatch comprises two large parts: the upstand and the cover.

Specifiers should consider whether an access hatch is ‘thermally broken’, and also take into account the insulation of the hatch. All Bilco UK roof access hatches are manufactured with 75mm of PIR insulation as standard.

Bilco UK’s thermally broken aluminium S-50TB Roof Access Hatch minimises heat transfer between interior and exterior metal surfaces. The result is a product that resists harmful condensation and provides superior energy efficiency. The GS-50TB is based on the S-50TB Roof Access Hatch with the added benefits of a skylight.

Bilco UK’s SKY Flatglass includes a polyester upstand that is fully insulated for weathertightness and an inner layer of low-emissivity (Low-E) glass that reflects infrared and ultraviolet light from inside the building, supporting the thermal performance of the product, whilst simultaneously maintaining an attractive design.

The SKY Flatglass is a versatile product that acts as a three in one solution; it is simultaneously a smoke vent, roof access hatch and rooflight, saving space, time and money. This three-in-one element also reduces three roof penetrations into a single one which also helps to improve thermal efficiency.

This is a perfect example of how specifiers can factor thermal efficiency into their roof safety purchases as an extra value proposition, without compromising on fundamental safety considerations, while keeping costs down.

  • Logik window system specified as an alternative to aluminium frames
  • Outstanding thermal performance with low U-values and A++ rated energy efficiency
  • Award winning development praised for strong character and confident design
  • Modern aesthetics and strong sustainability credentials meet developer and homeowner demands.

One of Eurocell’s most energy-efficient window solutions has been used as part of an award-winning large-scale residential development in Rainham, Kent.

Long-term fabrication and installation partner A&B Glass, included the market-leading Logik PVC-U window system as an alternative to aluminium frames, to meet developer and homeowner demand at the Beaulieu Park housing scheme.

Eurocell worked with A&B Glass, based in Sudbury, to manage the specification and supply of Logik for 90 plots covering a combination of new build residential homes and private apartments.

Outstanding Technical Performance

Each stunning new home at Beaulieu Park benefits from the attractive finish Logik offers, in addition to its outstanding technical performance which includes low U-values and A++ rated energy efficiency.

Work at Beaulieu Park took 18 months to complete. The development has since won the ‘Residential Super Major’ category at the Medway Housing Awards, where the judges complimented how the development has been moulded to create a strong sense of character and is confident in its design.

A Winning Combination for New Builds

A&B Glass has long standing experience supplying the new build market and an understanding of the balance that needs to be achieved between appearance and product effectiveness. Having manufactured and installed Logik across a wide number of new build developments throughout the UK, it is clear the system is answering the needs of the new build sector from both perspectives.

Martin Benn, Head of New Build at Eurocell, comments: “Our partnership with A&B Glass on this prestigious new build development in Rainham sees the project, and future homeowners and residents, benefit from what Logik has to offer. This includes its unrivalled range of colour options, which support design ambitions, cost-effective, long-term performance, and strong sustainability credentials offered by all our profiles.”

Two Decades of Mutual Success

David Miller, New Build Sales Manager for A&B Glass, commented: “After reviewing the specification required for the window solution for this project, Eurocell’s Logik system was the ideal answer. The developer, McCullough Homes, alongside its architects, were seeking a modern and contemporary window aesthetic to complement the overall development design.  So, the specification of more than 90 Logik frames in a highly appealing grey finish provides superb visual appeal across the whole project.”

David Miller continues: “It is fantastic to have Eurocell’s technical expertise on hand should we need it. We have developed a close and mutually beneficial working relationship that has lasted over two decades, and both our companies understand the demands and issues housebuilders have when it comes to the new build market.

“Logik is a highly specified window solution because it is proven to not only look good after installation, but it also ensures high performance for many years. It is fit for purpose, looks stylish, delivers strong thermal performance, and provides the finish the clients actively seek.”

What are basement drainage systems?

A key component of a Type C, Drained Protection System is the drainage system.  Often referred to in the industry as ‘basement drainage’ or ‘basement drainage systems’.

Type C, systems are water management systems.  The Type C System manages water that penetrates the external shell of a structure by collecting it in a cavity form between the external wall and an internal lining/wall.   There is permanent reliance on this cavity to collect ground water seepage and direct it to a suitable discharge point.   For Type C, Cavity Drainage Systems to function as intended, water ingress should be removed by gravity drain or mechanical pumping.

The purpose of a sump chamber is to collect and discharge (to a suitable evacuation point) any water ingress which has collected in the Type C, cavity drained protection system.
