SCOPE OF WORKS
We were tasked with manufacturing and installing stainless steel and glass balustrade systems within Manchester's new Circle Square building.
On the ground level, we meticulously designed, manufactured, and installed a trio of
satin-finished Stainless steel grab rails.
These rails, complete with based covers, were strategically placed to ensure the safety of visitors on the 3 tread steep step units and provide a sense of security.
We introduced our innovative bespoke frameless glass balustrade system on the upper level, accessed via the dual escalators.
It incorporated 31.5mm toughened and laminated glass panels complete with an SGP interlayer.
Our bespoke fabricated glass channel, designed to accommodate a 3.0Kn loading, was fixed beneath a raised access floor to support the glass.
This loading capacity was chosen to ensure the safety and stability of the balustrade system.
