Drum Property Group has released new aerial and timelapse photography of its G3 Square development in Finnieston, Glasgow, following the completion of the final phase of construction. The drone images show G3 Square’s proximity to the neighbouring SSE Hydro, Scottish Event Campus and the SWG3 entertainment venues – as well as being a short walk to a variety of fashionable bars, restaurants and boutique shops. Drum has now completed G3 Square with the successful delivery of a £31 million build-to-rent development for Edmund de Rothschild Real Estate Investment Management. This latest phase of the development, located on Minerva Street next to the Exhibition Centre Station, provides 113 apartments for rent. This adds to the first development phase of 108 private apartments for sale, which was completed and sold in 2021. G3 Square now comprises three separate buildings, ranging to six storeys and offering a selection of one, two and three-bedroom apartments and penthouses. The development’s energy is supplied using an innovative community heating and energy centre providing cost-effective and sustainable heat and power. Finnieston, labelled as one of the ‘top 10 coolest neighbourhoods’ in Europe by a recent international survey, has a prominent and growing presence in Glasgow’s West End. Graeme Bone, Group Managing Director of Drum believes the completed G3 Square will now contribute significantly to the ongoing regeneration of this burgeoning Glasgow district. “G3 Square’s location, high-quality accommodation and sustainable energy provision has created significant interest from buyers and tenants,” he said. “The building’s design echoes the height and feel of nearby traditional sandstone buildings and crescents, with contemporary interiors, landscaped outdoor areas and dedicated car and cycle parking spaces. Being located close to the M8 and Exhibition train station and within walking distance of the city centre, G3 Square has proved very appealing.” He added: “Drum Property Group is now looking forward to finishing and delivering more much-needed homes for local people across our other build-to-rent projects throughout the country.” For more information about G3 Square visit: www.g3-square.com Building, Design & Construction Magazine | The Choice of Industry Professionals
SOLAR & STORAGE LIVE Stand N3… A gull wing solar parking structure at Solar & Storage Live is set to demonstrate how organisations can provide their own green electricity to meet the growing demand for EV charging points. SIG Building Solutions, exhibiting at the show for the first time, is erecting the galvanised steel structure, one of a number of canopy designs the group manufactures, on Stand N3. Over 250 exhibitors will gather at Solar & Storage Live 2023, October 17-19, at the NEC and the event is expected to draw over 20,000 attendees. It is the UK’s largest renewable energy exhibition celebrating technologies at the forefront of the transition to a greener energy system. SIG Building Solutions entered the solar car parking structure market late last year with a range of designs developed to help private and public sector organisations, which have large parking facilities, to capitalise on the opportunities the structures provide for capturing solar energy and reducing their carbon footprint. SIG works in conjunction with the solar system provider to provide the structure element. “After an exciting first year during which the interest in our solar canopy support structures has been phenomenal, we are excited to be at Solar & Storage Live,” says SIG Building Solution’s business development manager Guy Chilvers. “Our canopies have been designed for ease of installation, so erecting our pre-built gull wing version at the NEC will not pose a challenge.” Half of the gull wing structure at Solar & Storage Live will be painted to illustrate the possibility of applying customer brand colours and the other half will be left galvanised. Sustainable, intelligent lighting specialist IBond LED is providing the lighting technology. “With countries around the world banning the sale of fossil-fuelled vehicles in the years to come, customers and employees will increasingly travel in EVs. Solar car parks will keep them moving by providing charging capacity. At SIG Building solutions we have set out to work in conjunction with the client’s PV solar panel provider to help them generate their own clean electricity using their parking spaces,” adds Guy Chilvers. During its first year, SIG Building Solutions has worked with clients including a local authority, a motor manufacturer, leisure centre and business park to manufacture and supply structures for circa 500 solar parking spaces. SIG’s three basic styles include double gull wing, double mono and single row structures to support PV panels. The canopy specification depends on the client’s requirements and on-site analysis. SIG’s investment has resulted in a range of unique structures that require less steel, so reducing cost, and can be installed efficiently to minimise disruption to car parking during construction. The use of Z600 galvanised steel maximises the life of the structure and minimises maintenance over its lifetime. Its low weight reduces the cost of foundations. The structures are manufactured at SIG facilities in the UK from UK held steel, enabling quick project turnaround. The SIG Building Solutions’ canopies are watertight. No steel sheet is required on the canopy support structure, the PV panels (manufactured by others) form the canopy using SIG’s mounting solution. New product launch at Solar & Storage Live Join SIG Building Solutions at Stand N3 at 10.30 on Tuesday, October 17, for the launch of its new solar panel ground mounting structures. More details to be announced. SIG Building Solutions SIG Building Solutions group businesses produced over two million metres of profiled steel sheeting in 2022. Building Solutions is part of SIG plc, a leading supplier of specialist insulation and sustainable building products and solutions with an emphasis on expertise and service. SIG plc has 6,800 employees, 432 sites and 250,000 product lines and is committed to supporting customers make tangible steps towards a greener future.

Yorkshire Water has selected BarhaleEnpure Joint Venture for an £18M project to upgrade Phosphorous removal and flow monitoring at its Dewsbury Wastewater Treatment Works. On completion, the works will ensure Phosphorus concentrations in the final effluent meet water industry national environment programme (WINEP) targets for England. The installation of a UMON4 device will also upgrade monitoring to MCERTS (monitoring certification scheme) standards and will confirm that the treatment works is treating permitted flow to full treatment (2,350 litres per second) when the storm overflow is operating. Central to the scheme is the transformation of the primary treatment capabilities through the replacement of a number of the 14 existing Primary Settlement Tanks (PSTs) with three new, larger tanks and two new primary sludge pumping stations. The project will take advantage of off-site manufacturing to pre-cast the concrete wall sections before they are assembled on site to form the new 8.5m deep (deepest at the central de-sludge cone), 45 metre diameter settlement tanks. An existing beck will be diverted to make way for the construction of the tanks. BarhaleEnpure Joint Venture will convert one of the existing PSTs into a primary distribution chamber that will distribute flow to the new tanks. It will also install a new chemical dosing plant comprising two 40m3 storage tanks and dosing equipment housed in a new DfMA (Design for Manufacture and Assembly) steel-framed building manufactured off-site. An existing inlet channel will be modified to include the UMON4 inlet flume. Mark Wood, Barhale’s Regional Director for Yorkshire and North East England, believes the Dewsbury contract will make an important contribution to the portfolio of projects taking place within the region, guaranteeing water quality in Yorkshire. “Effective management of Phosphorous levels can make a big difference to the quality of water in our rivers and streams,” he said. “This is a major upgrade for the Dewsbury Wastewater Treatment Works which reflects Yorkshire Water’s ambitions for P-removal across its assets and its commitment to meet new standards. This is just one of the many projects being undertaken to improve water quality in the Yorkshire area. “By using off-site manufacturing techniques for several important elements and reusing existing assets, the build programme will also benefit from reduced carbon impact and time on site. “At BarhaleEnpure Joint Venture, we are looking forward to continuing to work closely with the Yorkshire Water team to deliver this important project for the region.” Steve Milling, BarhaleEnpure JV Framework Manager said: “The award of this design and construct contract follows a prolonged Early Contractor Involvement phase of more than two years. Through this period, the BarhaleEnpure JV design team worked closely with Yorkshire Water and Stantec to refine the outline design and introduce significant value engineering changes. “We look forward to delivering a cost efficient plant design which, when commissioned, will be well able to meet the new Phosphorus standard.” Richard Stuart, Director of Capital Delivery, at Yorkshire Water, said: “We are committed to looking at innovative ways to improve the operation of our sites. This project will make use of a range of measures designed to reduce carbon impact and speed up the length of the works. “Not only does this provide significant benefits to us and our customers for a cost saving point of view, the work will ultimately lead to improved water quality by removing Phosphorus from treated effluent and provide improved monitoring at the site to ensure compliance.” The project forms part of Yorkshire Water’s £500 million investment in Phosphorous removal – part of its ongoing commitment to ensure future facilities meet current and anticipated Environment Agency quality targets.

American real estate group Realty is in has reached a deal with Ediston Property Investment Company to purchase its entire property estate for £200.8m. Ediston confirmed it had reached an agreement with RI UK 1 Limited, a subsidiary of Realty, over the sale of its 11 site-strong retail park estate. Eidston currently invest in retail parks in Stirling, Haddington, Sunderland, Widnes, Barnsley, Prestatyn, Hull, Wrexham, Glasgow, Daventry, and Rhyl. The group said its portfolio has a value of £208.4m with a contracted rental income of £16.5m. William Hill, chairman of Ediston, said: “The board was very pleased with the interest shown in the company, with proposals being received from a number of potential counterparties. Having considered multiple options, and after detailed analysis, the board determined a sale of the property portfolio to Realty Income was the best means of maximising shareholder value. “The board unanimously considers the disposal to be in the best interests of the company and its shareholders as a whole and recommends that shareholders vote in favour of the resolution at the general meeting.” The group’s general meeting will be held on 26 September. If the acquisition is accepted unconditionally, Ediston’s board will look to seek shareholder approval to voluntarily liquidate the company and distribute all of its assets – which would consist entirely of cash – to shareholders. It was recently reported that Florida-based Realty is eyeing the purchase of Inverness Shopping Park, the Kingston Centre in Milton Keynes, and Serpentine Green in Peterborough from British Land. Also included in the deal is a portfolio of six data centres and offices based in London, which are currently leased to Vodafone. The New York-listed company entered the UK property market in 2019 when it formed a joint partnership with British Land to take ownership of 12 Sainsbury’s supermarkets, in a deal worth £429m. It now has a British portfolio worth over £2bn, having invested in a number of supermarkets, DIY stores, and retail parks. Realty previously told its investors that it sees the UK as an attractive investment hotspot. Building, Design & Construction Magazine | The Choice of Industry Professionals
SEGRO continues to set new standards for sustainable refurbishment within its 106 million square feet portfolio of industrial and logistics space it owns and manages across the UK and continental Europe following the completion of a six-month long renovation of 2 Auriol Drive The 25-year-old, 33,000 sq ft industrial unit at Greenford Park, has been transformed into a state-of-the-art, environmentally sustainable facility.

CEG has just completed two floors of bespoke designed and fit-out space for transport, infrastructure, and engineering company SYSTRA, at the iconic 28-storey Alpha tower in Birmingham. The 10-year lease of 14,000 sq ft marks the largest custom fit deal delivered by the investment and development company to date. Richard Brookes, investment manager at CEG, explains: “Most companies don’t employ experts at design and fitting out workspace. They have a business to run and staff to manage, so a landlord willing to deliver this, especially one that will amortise the costs within the lease, can help clinch the deal. “SYSTRA were already located on one floor, but as they swiftly grew, they wanted bespoke, contemporary workspace befitting the expanded team. We agreed a deal over two floors, with a full design and refit package, providing 160-strong workspace, meeting and board room and kitchenette facilities – all designed to retain and attract the best talent. “Our in-house team of building and project managers know Alpha better than anyone and were able to design the most efficient space, working in harmony with existing pipework, air/cooling system and fire constraints. We managed the process from end to end, meeting SYSTRA’s goals from design and layout to productivity, health and sustainability, with the client also making cost savings thanks to our supply chain buying power.” In recent years, CEG delivered a £16.6 million refurbishment of Alpha, creating a contemporary and collaborative working environment for corporates wanting space floor by floor to Let Ready fully furnished flexible studio space for smaller and growing companies. As a result, the building is now 85 % let. John Porter, facilities manager at SYSTRA said: “Alpha is well located within central Birmingham close to New Street station, which makes it really accessible for the team. The recent refurbishment has also provided some of the highest quality space in the city, and the Let Ready studios were ideal. “The ability to accommodate our fast growth within custom-designed space be-fitting of our brand was perfect, and the fact that it could all be delivered by the landlord at no risk to us was even better. “We have a well-motivated team which loves coming to work in our new workspace. they benefit from the café, wellness studio and gym on site, and the Life by CEG app is great for keeping everyone up to date with events and offers.” Since early 2022, CEG has delivered more than 150 Let Ready Custom Design + Fit Out deals, with the help of its UK network of agents. By the end of this year that is likely to grow to more than a 100 deals per annum, creating bespoke workspace for thousands of people.
