Description
The University of Strathclyde (“the University”) is seeking to establish a Contract for a Project for Overcladding Works at the John Anderson Building (2024-25) (UOS-32499-2024). Lot 1: The University is seeking to appoint a works / construction contractor for a project for overcladding works at the John Anderson Building. This project has been funded through the Scottish Funding Council's (SFC) University Financial Transactions Programme (UFTP). The project is part of the University’s net zero pathway programme in alignment with our Strategic Plan (Strathclyde 2030) to reduce carbon emissions as part of our Key Performance Indicator (KPI) 16 that sets bold targets of 80% carbon reduction by 2030, and to be net zero by 2040. Building fabric and services improvements have been identified as high priority projects that are key to the successful delivery of our net zero pathway to achieving these challenging but mandated targets. This project provides the opportunity to significantly improve the energy performance of John Anderson Building by reducing its current heat loss from 589.0kW to 323.8kW. This equates to a 54.97% reduction due to improvements in the building fabric and air permeability. This project involves the design, manufacture, supply and installation of overcladding of the John Anderson Building, located off Rottenrow East in the city centre of Glasgow. Built in 1971, the John Anderson Building has had ongoing problems with water ingress over a number of years due to the failing façade. The decision has been made to resolve the current issues by overcladding the reinforced concrete framed building using fully demountable ‘cassette’ type aluminium rainscreen cladding system, incorporating insulation, fixed back to the main structure and holding the current panels in place including anchors, brackets rails, trimmers, insulation, firebreaks, panels and flashings. The system will be designed to ensure that it meets all current building regulations. The cladding will have a life expectancy of 60 years plus and be fully recyclable at the end of its useful life. As part of the works, the existing windows will be replaced by installing high performance windows to all facades of the building. The specification will meet current regulations for thermal and sound control, increase natural daylight and reduce the heat loss of the building. The University is seeking to find, by competitive tender, a specialist overcladdding contractor to undertake the above works on a design & build basis, providing a single point of responsibility from detailed design through to delivery of a completed total envelope solution. Initial works will include the survey, testing and analysis of the existing structure and panels, and stabilisation and remediation of the existing panels to ensure their future security. A full structural and architectural design will be required for both this and the cladding solution. Throughout the project, structural reports and detailed design information will be supplied to the Employer’s Agent for confirmation of conformance to the design intent, and such information must be provided promptly to allow time for review. A 25-year insurance backed warranty of the completed works is a requirement. The site programme consists of a survey and design period of 6 weeks and a site construction period of 32 weeks is anticipated, this is inclusive of 4 weeks lead in time for bespoke materials and completion of a survey and structural design calculations, subject to the successful contractor’s confirmation. Logistics of delivering materials, access to local depots and material contingency plans will be pertinent to the successful delivery of these works.
