Jackson Wins Fire Station Contract
Following the successful completion of a new build ambulance station, the special projects division of Jackson Construction, has secured a further £1.1 million project to construct a new Fire Station.
Jackson Building Services employed some of the very latest pre-fabricated building solutions to construct the two classroom extensions.
A system of pre-cast concrete panels form internal and external walls, as well as the roof and floors of the new buildings.
By phasing the more disruptive elements of the project to coincide with term holidays, Jackson was careful to ensure that the works had limited impact on the day-to-day operation of the school, with the 32-week project completed on time and within budget.
Michael Manning, construction director for Jackson Building Services, commented: "By successfully incorporating off site manufacturing techniques into the building process we significantly reduced the construction programme at the Sir Harry Smith Community College and delivered a high quality solution for our client.".
