Senior specified for UK’s first carbon-neutral built community arena
T
he new Canon Medical Arena in Sheffield has been designed by architects Bond Bryan and features a duo of sustainable aluminium fenestration solutions from Senior Architectural Systems. Senior’s SF52 curtain wall system was the ideal choice for the arena’s modern facade, offering attractive slim sightlines and design flexibility without compromising on exceptional thermal performance.
The use of this system, which offers full cradle to cradle recyclability, complements the Canon Medical Arena’s sustainable credentials as the UK’s first carbon-neutral built community arena. Senior’s SD aluminium commercial doors were selected to complement the use of the SF52 curtain wall system and provide a robust solution for such a high traffic application. Both Senior products were expertly fabricated and installed by specialist contractor MIS
Architectural
Aluminium Rotherham on behalf of main contractor Beboys. The Canon Medical Arena has been designed to address inequality in Sheffield, providing significant
employment
opportunities in the city as well as offering a
‘one-stop-shop’ preventative healthcare
service. The centre will be home to cutting- edge diagnostic imaging systems which will help to relieve post-Covid waiting lists and allow residents to receive early intervention

Advertorial.indd 1 Sapphire delivers balcony innovation to Berkley Homes Chelsea Creek project
Chelsea Homes, a stunning St George, Berkley Homes project in Central London offers European-style urban lifestyle with tree-lined avenues and meandering waterways. The facade of the building had different exteriors using brick, metal and GRC panels and a total of 183 balconies of 43 different types. Sapphire worked closely with Berkley Homes and architects Scott Brownrigg to design and manufacture balconies for the various facade conditions. The new glass-fi bre reinforced concrete (GRC) fascia supplied to the balconies had wide tolerance, and it was crucial to design fi xings to fi x the precision-made balconies. The team at Sapphire Balconies designed innovative stainless-steel brackets to fi x wide tolerance in the new GRC fascia, which had movement tolerance in all directions. Due to the different style of structural posts included in this phase of the Chelsea Creek project, a new post & rail system was included, comprising a package of prefi nished extruded aluminium profi les, easily assembled to provide a robust and attractive balustrade on the project.
