Pavilion Point
Brighton University - Student accommodation
The challenge that we effectively overcame was meeting the inflexible deadlines of freshers week despite the significant delays across the industry with material supplies and absences owing to COVID-19. The project required a design and build approach, innovative thinking, and delivery on time and at cost. There were various room types, each requiring a different design and approach. Services supplied were plumbing, mechanical, ventilation, and ducting, and complete project management across the other packages.
Project scope:
We were commissioned for the supply and installation of the plant room equipment, including gas and incoming water, hot water services (first fix, testing and commissioning), coldwater services (first select, testing and commissioning), above-ground drainage, and rainwater goods (installation and testing), thermal installation and testing, LTHW (heating system), Commissioning (including flushing, chlorination, and balancing). Work per EN/BS standards, codes of conduct, and industry best practices.
