Project Outcome
The redevelopment required the church to be encased in a steel and glass exoskeleton, allowing it to become a functional and visually striking part of the office complex. ORS played a critical role in this transformation by ensuring strict adherence to the Building Control (Amendment) Regulations (BCAR). This process was customised to meet the unique challenges of the project, involving close collaboration with the contractor and design team.
ORS conducted a series of BCAR workshops to guide the design and construction teams through the regulatory requirements. These workshops covered key aspects such as the implementation of the inspection plan, documentation of compliance issues, and adherence to Fire Safety Certificates (FSC) and Disability Access Certificates (DAC) standards. In addition to these workshops, ORS also coordinated and carried out regular inspections, ensuring that every phase of the project met the necessary standards and was completed efficiently.
