Chelsea Football Club

Contract	Chelsea Football Club
Client	Chelsea Football Club
Main Contractor	Cosmur Construction Ltd

Description:

This was a project that had to be completed within the very short footballing “close season”. It took 6 teams of scaffolders to erect independent towers around the existing West Stand to enable a beamed structure to be linked to produce a high level working platform. This was made more tresting due to the curved nature of the building. The centre section was covered in a Haki System temporary roof as a new banqueting suite was built on the 5th floor.

Home Office

Contract	Home Office
Client	Bouygues UK Ltd
Main Contractor

Description:

When the old “Home Office” was developed the Admiral Scaffolding Group convinced the client that cost savings could be made by incorporating a “rolling” Haki system temporary roof. By constructing the temporary structure on castors and a beam section the expensive roof was able to be rolled into different positions rather than incurring the extra cost of re-erecting it.

Four Seasons Hotel

Contract	Four Seasons Hotel, Park Lane W1
Client	Four Seasons Hotel
Main Contractor	Beck Interiors Ltd

Descriptions:

This project involved the taxing task of designing a temporary roof with a maximum span of over 20m at an exposed height of 30+m. This was designed to suit the Haki temporary roofing system. It was completed in January 2009, just in time to receive and withstand the massive loadings imposed by the freakish snowfall of February – the worst in 100 years!

Livingstone House

Contract	Livingstone House, Wyndham Rd SE5
Client	London Borough Of Southwark
Main Contractor	Albert Soden Ltd

Description:

This contract involved the complete re-roofing of all sections of Livingstone House whilst at the same time allowing a full external refurbishment of the block. To ensure that the tenants could remain in residence the Client decided to provide a full scaffold that would incorporate a temporary roof. In discussions with the Main Contractor, Admiral suggested the use of a lightweight Haki temporary roof system. (For more details of this type of scaffold please refer to our specialist page.)

The roof proved challenging because it had to cover four sections of Livingstone House, each of which abutted at right angles a roof of a different height. Admiral designed a scheme which allowed for spine beams to bridge the lower roofs allowing the abutment to be made watertight.
