Blackberry Hill Hospital, Vistry Partnerships
Situation | Result | Impact |
Blackberry Hill is a mixed-use regeneration project combining new builds and refurbished protected buildings. It required diverse construction methods and sustainable features to meet carbon reduction, BREEAM, and ECO homes standards. | The project balanced new build, refurbishment, and sustainability standards to achieve cost-effective compliance with all requirements. | We delivered innovative construction solutions to ensure compliance with obligations. Achieved BREEAM and ECO homes obligations and a 20% carbon reduction site-wide. |
Situation
Blackberry Hill is a complex mixed-use regeneration project consisting of residential dwellings and commercial units, both of which have both new build elements and refurbishment to existing protected buildings.
The site uses a variety of construction methods including pioneering SIG i-house systems builds, steel frame apartment blocks, and sympathetically refurbishing the envelope of the old hospital with natural, breathable insulation to preserve the existing building fabric, whilst providing the thermal comfort associated with new build construction.
The units are served by a mix of individual gas boilers and CHP plant and achieve a site-wide target of 20% carbon reduction, code for sustainable homes level 4, along with BREEAM and ECO homes obligations.
Result
Working across multiple disciplines in both new build and refurbishment, with site-wide targets, conservation considerations, Code level 4, BREEAM and ECO homes, meant finding a balanced strategy which would deliver compliance on all fronts in a cost-effective manner.
Impact
We engaged early with the design team to respond to the required pace of development, challenging ground conditions, bespoke construction methods, and provided a coherent strategy in achieving all site-wide obligations and compliance.
