Award of CT1264 - Brunstane Primary School Retrofit utilising CCS Construction Works and Associat...

Description

The City of Edinburgh Council is looking to carry out retrofit works at Brunstane Primary School as part of works to upgrade the energy efficiency of the Council's building stock. Brunstane Primary School is a post war era primary school building in Brunstane, northeast Edinburgh. The retrofit of the school proposes a fabric first approach to reduce energy consumption which is critical given the climate emergency we are now facing. The existing school consists of a 3 storey teaching block, referred to as the ‘tower’ and a single storey administration, amenity and infant block. The tower is a masonry wall / precast concrete floor and roof construction. The single storey is of masonry wall construction with suspended timber floors. The roof is a ‘Trofdek’ trapezoidal plywood cassette structure. Structural surveys of these elements have been carried out as part of the design development. This is a mini competition utilising Crown Commercial Services (CCS) Construction Works and Associated Services Framework (Ref: RM6088) – Lot 2.4: Construction Works and Associated Services – Scotland.
