Coleg Llandrillo Finance & Registry Building, Colwyn Bay
Client: Extraspace Solutions
Budget: £1.6m
Completed: 2011
This project, which we worked on with Extraspace Solutions, delivered a new modular building with a high quality, professional finish and excellent environmental performance rating.
The project brief for the modular construction, a new Finance and Registry Building for the college, included demolition of the existing exams centre (a temporary building), a new build scheme to provide office and exam room accommodation extending to circa 618m2, foul and surface water drainage and associated site works.
One of the key requirements of the brief was to provide the college with a BREEAM Excellent building, and a design stage Excellent Rating (over 70%) was achieved.
The first floor office accommodation was heated by a tradition LTHW heating installation with individual temperature controllers for each user. The office also utilised the open plan layout for natural ventilation. The ground floor examination hall was heated and cooled utilising an Air to Air Source Heat Pump system, which worked in conjunction with a full fresh air heat recovery mechanical ventilation system.
