Old Ford car site converted into energy efficient affordable homes
A four-acre site, originally part of the Ford Dagenham car plant, will provide a new home for 325 residential units in a series of five to ten storey apart- ment buildings.

of the Wraptite® airtightness membrane from the
A. Proctor Group features in the design. Wraptite is the only self-adhering vapour permeable air barrier certified by the BBA and combines the critical properties of vapour permeability and airtightness in one self-adhering membrane. Unmanaged or uncontrolled airflow can act as a carrier for moist air, drawing it from outside or pulling it from inside into walls, ceilings and roofs. As a result, unmanaged airflow will almost certainly influence the energy efficiency of the building, and uncontrolled moist air movement will have a long term detrimental effect on the durability and life of the building. Including the Wraptite System within the facade design helps ensure “as-designed” performance, narrowing the gap between as-designed and actual energy performance and reducing the likelihood of potential failures to meet required airtightness levels.

standard openings and gaps often have to be filled with uPVC. These new 6’8” and 7’2” door heights offer a perfect fit for some taller standard openings, including a 6mm fitting tolerance. This means there is no need for uPVC cladding, saving both time and materials. Garador’s new height doors are available for both the Carlton and Horizon door models.

Aluminium windows, doors and curtain wall systems from Senior Architectural Systems have been used to create a modern and efficient fenes- tration package for a new residential development in the heart of Bristol’s historical harbourside. Senior worked to design a fenestration package
that would meet the specific needs of the waterside development, which includes Senior’s low maintenance SPW600 aluminium windows and doors. Senior’s high performance SF52 aluminium curtain wall system also features throughout the scheme to maximise the use of natural light, with the company’s safe and secure SPW501 aluminium commercial doors specified as panic doors with crash bars for the emergency exits.
