ASWS facilitates ‘forensic’ demolition work
The fi nesse and forensic attention to detail displayed by Associated Steel Window Services (ASWS) when removing, cataloguing and eventually reinstating old windows or other architectural metalwork could not be further removed from the world of the
wrecking ball, or Fred Dibner burning timber props from beneath a factory chimney. Typically, ASWS will conduct a full condition survey on behalf of the client or architects which can include laser scans of the building, intrusive metal sampling to determine the materials used, and recording details about each window.

A Sto external wall insulation (EWI) system spanning 8,000 m² has upgraded the exterior of a waterside residential development in Canary Wharf, London, providing fi re compliant facades. Pierhead Lock is situated opposite the O2 arena on the River Thames. Beginning with a 12-storey tower by the water, the development gradually steps down to two storeys as it curls round the dock. The BBA-certifi ed StoTherm Mineral K external wall insulation system achieves a reaction to fi re of A2-s1, d0 in accordance with BS EN 13501-1. The A1-rated mineral fi bre insulation boards were adhesively fi xed to the concrete substrate using StoLevell Duo Plus. This levelling mineral adhesive was applied to the back of the insulation boards, with fi xings used to secure the insulation boards to the substrate, including through the mesh to suit wind load conditions. StoFlexyl, an acrylic-based, fi bre-reinforced waterproofi ng product was also used to encapsulate the insulation below the dampproof course. To refl ect Pierhead Lock’s original architectural style, the system was fi nished with StoSilco K1.5 silicone resin render. This provided a crisp white fi nish.
