EDUCATIONAL VENUES
CASE STUDY 1: CSC SCREEDING Whether it be educating the industry through the Screed Scientist initiative or honing the skills of their work force through constant training, CSC has always kept itself active on the education front. Therefore, it was no less than a matter of pride to CSC to carry out the screeding for 35 schools across the UK in the past year.
Their ‘school bag’ came with an assorted medley of projects last year, with projects ranging from plain old school floors with traditional screed, to sports halls and eco-builds with modified and fast-drying screed over insulation and underfloor heating. The school projects put their skills to the test in terms of planning and attention to little details.
For some of the schools, the CSC Screeding teams had to work their way through quirky access routes and unpleasant weather to get the floors screeded and ready on time for tiny tots heading for their first day at school.
On the other hand, for some of the other schools, the challenge lay in
carrying out the work during regular school hours with little busy-bodies bustling around. But thanks to a sound health and safety system they could carry out their work smoothly while keeping the site safe for all the inquisitive little Handy Mannys and Bob the Builders who were keen to lend a hand in fixing the floors.
The screeding teams on site left no stones unturned when it came to ensuring site safety.
CSC is proud to be part of the Priority Schools Building Programme, and they have even been nominated for the Federation of Plastering and Drywall Contractors (FPDC) Technical Screeding award.
