Scope
Principal Contractor, Roberston Central West Limited contracted Brand Access Solutions (formerly Lyndon SGB) to provide the temporary works access, scaffolding and weather protection – with works commencing in July 2023, expected to run to December 2024.
Challenge
The scaffold on the 1938 modernist building – designed by well-known architect, James Andrew Carrick of J&R Carrick of Ayr – is a CUPLOK® system build and UniRoof temporary roofing system, with a large span of c29.4m on the main central roof. And there are two further, smaller temporary roofs running away from the central roof.
All structures were designed in-house, by our engineering teams – a deeply complex project design, as the building is at its maximum capability taking the imposed loadings from the scaffold and roofing structures. Multiple fresh designs were required throughout the evolving project, to avoid overloading the structure itself.
Up to six scaffolding operatives constructed the main access, with a team of 10 in place for the roofing sections.
The early engagement of Brand Access Solutions on such a complex historic landmark of a project has yielded great results, with the works on time and on budget.
Let's do something great on your next project.
