Estates Bursar David Anderson shares an update on the new Music School building project.
It seems that since my update last month it hasn’t stopped raining! The site is in the unenviable position of sitting just below the main sports pitches thus gathering up all of the groundwater draining away. This has slowed down progress a little with the incessant pumping out of the foundations. Undeterred but contractually bound! LifeBuild are progressing well and have moved into the five week programme of erecting 120 tonnes of steel framing. By early November the outline of the building will take shape with the floors and roof structures following on. Below you can see the 3d drawing of the steel frame together with photos of progress on site taken on 21st October.
