BT Concrete Repairs

Key Features

Following a competitive E-BAFO procurement exercise we were appointed to undertake the application of an anti-carbonation coating and external redecoration works to fourteen sites on behalf of BT.

These were separated into two phases of seven sites each based on geographical location.

The scope of works comprised removal of loose concrete, cutting back exposed steel reinforcement, removing debris and vegetation, and finally encapsulating the concrete panels with an elastomeric anti-carbonation coating.

Each facility was required to remain in use and open throughout the works.

Continuous Improvement exercises were undertaken at the completion of each phase in order to capture lessons learned and carry these forward on to subsequent sites.

Challenges and Solutions

Bespoke access solutions were required on each site in order to efficiently and safely deliver the works.

This included a combination of scaffold, MEWPs, and cherry pickers in order to account for the irregular shape of the buildings.

Our temporary works coordinator inspected and signed off all scaffold and access in conjunction with the client’s representatives as required.
