A new purpose-built extension was added to Toronto Primary school, comprising a monolithic textured precast concrete games hall that opens up to the school playing fields. Due to the nature of the bespoke designed concrete pieces a detailed and well communicated health & safety plan was created by Paul and his team. The textured concrete band which is punctured only at high level by way of a sandblasted pattern across Reglit apertures, conveys the pattern of the surrounding tree lined avenue. The concrete wraps the entire base of the extension. In addition, a prominent internal feature wall panel for the reception area with both recessed and protruding lettering showing a bespoke design incorporating words chosen by the primary school pupils – had to be carefully installed.
Once the health & safety plan in accordance with Construction (Design and Management) Regulations was written and communicated Paul managed the project to ensure compliance.
