Energy Efficient Building Constructed in North West University.

Principal Technical Services Ltd were approached in 2007 by a large, multi national M & E Main Contractor to aid them in the tendering of a new, energy efficient energy centre based at one of the largest Universities in the country. The 13+ million pound tender was successfully negotiated after which time PTS were employed to oversee the building and construction sub-contract packages throughout the duration of the contract, through to final account stage. The construction work involved in this development ranged from the demolition of an existing car park, ground works and substructure works through to the steel portal frame construction, mezzanine floor construction and the installation of a cladded roof system. There were also a bespoke designed external cladding finish and and glazed walling system installed. The external works and landscaping were also included within our scope along with the construction and fit-out of a seperate office / amenity block. The project was carried out under the Considerate Constructors Scheme of which the site was marked within the top 5% of all sites across the UK and has so far ran to programme and budget and has exceeded the Clients expectations. The project also entailed the demolition of an existing boiler house and 40m chimney, all within feet of grade 2 listed buildings.
