Churchdown Medical Centre

The creation of a brand new medical centre for the residents of Churchdown

This scheme, which was delivered to BREEAM Excellent, involved the construction of a brand new two-storey medical centre, together with a car park.

It has been constructed using piled foundations with reinforced concrete ground beams, load bearing masonry walls, precast concrete floors with concrete tiles, brick and render finish to the elevations.

The requirement to achieve BREEAM Excellent presented a number of challenges in the way in which the building was designed, the selection of materials and the way in which the site itself was managed. This included using local subcontractors and apprentices, sourcing local materials and monitoring waste and CO₂ against predefined targets. In addition, we worked with a local school and a local doctors practice to promote healthy lifestyles.
