The Challenge
Live university campus
During the course of the Theatre refurbishment, all of the surrounding areas were fully occupied by either students, academics or were the subject of construction work. Overbury successfully delivered the 36 weeks project without disruption by diligently planning and sequencing the works, ensuring all live and transient services were maintained, while liaising with a wide variety of stakeholders.
3D modelling
As the project was being designed in a 3D environment, but with the absence of an existing model of the buildings structure, additional point cloud surveys were utilised during the strip out and enabling phase to assist in developing the building services model and co-ordination with structure.
Scaffold design
In order to work at high level and low level simultaneously, a birdcage scaffold was utilised, along with a number of other innovative scaffold designs, in order for works to adjacent areas to progress concurrently.
