Housing

Location:

RAF site, St Andrews Park, Uxbridge.

Project:

4 blocks of apartments (250 total ) 6 stories above ground plus car park and storage below ground.

GFA worked in collaboration with the Galliford Try team to develop and resolve the construction detailing on the above project.

The scope of work included:

GFA worked for 12 months on the RAFTI development for Galliford Try in 2018. Our main goal was to assist the main contractor with co-ordination and construction level information to ensure there were no delays or mistakes on site. We were asked by the contractor to redesign the apartments to comply with Part B of the fire regulations and thus avoid having to install sprinklers in a partially complete building. Our re-design saved the contractor over £500,000. Our role included:

  • Assisting with subcontractor procurement.
  • Interface detailing.
  • Marking up and commenting on subcontractor drawings.
  • Design development of critical elements of the building.
  • Resolution of construction details on site.
  • Apartment redesign to comply with building regulations
