In July 2012 Glendale foods suffered a fire destroying part of their manufacturing site in Salford. The re-build plans negotiated and Contract in place Building Projects challenge was to commence the build in October 2014 of a new portal structure, ground works, with refrigerated panels and cladding all to be completed, time of the essence, to commence a new contract for a leading frozen food retailer by January 2015. The new structure to be butted up to the adjoining Victorian built building gave additional challenges. The Design was amended as the projects progressed due to the client’s requirements. A Victorian culvert, owned by United Utilities was discovered early on after the project commenced. Work ceased until United Utilities completed extensive repairs resulting in the need for amendments to the already tight programme.
