Working with the contractor, our role was to deliver a small extension to River Beach Primary School school in West Sussex to provide a new classroom and changing room spaces.

The extension was tying into an existing school building (Food tech room) and altering the means of escape which required consideration and coordination with building control and the clients around their existing fire strategy and usage.

The new flat roof construction was to junction with an existing flat roof which contained asbestos, throwing up some additional challenges around the detailing and construction process.
