Core Drilling Specialists

CDS were a major contribution to the completion of one of Scotland most Iconic Buildings not just whilst it remained open to the public but also with so many restrictions given the logistics of the building being situated in the heart of the capital but also directly above the railway tunnel. We were key link to the chain in ensuring the structural integrity of the building remained intact during the jacking of the south façade and throughout the demolition and excavation works to the south end of the building.

Inspire Contract Services
Lloyds of London and Bauder

The once-in-a-generation overhaul of this Grade I-listed building included the full refurbishment of all flat roofs on the property, which had remained in place since the original construction in 1986. Due to the unusual design and height of the building, an innovative hanging scaffold solution was designed to safely remove and replace the existing roof waterproofing. Over 3,000 lift operations were also needed to transport materials between the ground and Level 13 area. Despite these technical and logistical challenges, a collaborative approach ensured that this prestigious building was successfully refurbished in a sympathetic and caring manner.
