Jackson's Completes Duxford War Museum Project
Jackson Building Services has completed a £1.3 million, nine-month project to transform the old Armoury building at the Imperial War Museum Duxford.
The project will achieve a 'very good' Eco Homes rating and externally the building will feature attractive brick, render and timber cladding to its facade and a high performance pitched membrane roof.
The tightly constrained site provides challenging working conditions for the contractor, with the new building occupying the entire footprint of the site.
Utilising the sloping nature of the site, ISG Jackson Special Projects will form a basement car parking area beneath the building and carry out a range of external hard and soft landscaping finishes.
The project is scheduled for completion mid-March 2008.
Michael Manning, divisional director for ISG Jackson Special Projects, commented: "As environmental performance and sustainability continue to prove key driving forces for housing association clients, we can demonstrate a strong track record in our effective use of modern methods of construction to meet the strictest green criteria".
"ISG Jackson Special Project's growing list of blue chip social housing clients firmly underlines our commitment and desire to secure an increasing share of this important sector.".
