Location:Kingsway Park High School, Rochdale
Client:Kingsway Park High School via Turner & Townsend
Alan Wood & Partners (AWP) were commissioned to undertake an inspection of the building fabric and prepare condition reports for Kingsway Park High School in Rochdale.
Spanning across three blocks with an approximate site GIFA of 11,190 sq/m over three-storeys, we surveyed two of the main teaching blocks during the school summer holidays. The survey aimed to assess the current condition of the buildings, provide advice on future maintenance, and evaluate the potential impact on the structure and internal finishes resulting from proposed alterations to the site and buildings.
AWP worked alongside an M&E sub-contractor and drone surveyor to provide an exhaustive assessment of all aspects of the buildings surveyed, as well as providing a structural appraisal of the concrete framed part of the school building.
Surveys were carried out using iPad surveying software (GoReport) to capture the condition of the building quickly and accurately on site, tailoring the outputs to suit the scoping requirements of the Client which included condition ratings and PDF and Excel outputs to allow key elements to be extrapolated for use as part of planned maintenance and repair requirements.
