concealed vents and System 17 capped high rise curtain walling formed the framework for the extensive glazed facades. System 17 SP is a structured glazing system designed to create visually impressive all-glass facades with profiles that provide structural integrity, weather performance, thermal enhancement and, importantly, can only be seen on the inside of the building. System 5-20D Hi+ thermally broken doors were also specified for the project.

And now for something completely different...
Invisifold Ltd and VBHhave teamed up to develop and launch an exciting new system for slide & fold doors and windows. The system, known as greenteQ Invisifold, is being introduced by VBH this winter and includes applications for doors, tilt & turn windows and even outward opening casement windows. VBH advise that
as far as it is aware, this is the only solution that allows standard profiles to be used for slide & fold door and window applications. Peter Rowlands, MD of VBH commented: “The greenteQ Invisifold design is a major step forward as it allows standard profiles to be used for both doors and windows. The fact that the system has the potential to be Document Q compliant is also hugely beneficial as this style of opening is perfect for new build installations.”
enq.163 Stunning roof for London pub with new Sika Sarnafil Self Adhered Membrane
Specialist roofing contractor Hambro Roofing has recently completed works to a new JD Wetherspoon pub in London, known as ‘The Mossy Well’, which now boasts 500sq m of Sika Sarnafil Self Adhered membrane. JD Wetherspoon has spent just over £3 million developing the outlet on Muswell Hill, which opened in October. Extensive refurbishment and adaptations to the building needed to take place due to the existing roofs being in such a bad state. Essex-based Sika Sarnafil contractor, Hambro Roofing, was awarded the contract after proposing to use Sika Sarnafil single ply for the flat roof repairs. The refurbishment comprised of complex work on the existing pitched roofs, lead flashings, guttering and renewal of the flat roof. A section of new barrel roof was also required in the centre of the building; comprising of flat, vertical and soffit detailing. The client required the new roof area to look like a traditional zinc roof covering. Sika Sarnafil G410-15 FSA was specified for the job, with decor profiling to match the surrounding roofs. Ideal for the job, the system is lightweight, cost effective and offers a flawless finish. The barrel roof was also fitted with SarnaTherm insulation over a SarnaVap vapour barrier. Sikalastic Liquid Applied Membrane was used on the detailing around the guttering to achieve a seamless waterproof finish.

Exhibiting the benefits of single ply
Olympia London’s grand hall will continue to function as one of Europe’s premier exhibition venues for years to come, with help from Protan. The 100+ years-old Grade II listed building is undergoing a major refurbishment, the latest element being the refurbishment of the North Elevation and Apex roofs. The north elevation of the
35m high iron-framed barrel roof covering has been overlaid by main contractor Heartfelt Roofing, using 1,600m2
of Protan SE1.2mm SE single ply membrane.
Protan SE membrane has a tensile strength of ≥1050N, and tear resistance ≥210N. Developed to withstand the weather extremes of Scandinavia, Protan SE membrane is more flexible than comparable PVC membranes.
