Client:	Grangegorman D7 Educate Together
Project:	Two Storey, Sixteen Classroom School
Size:	2,500 sq metres
Project Timeframe:	16 weeks

Requirement:

Roan Building Systems were awarded the contract to design & build a purpose built two storey sixteen classroom school building & complete development of a green-field site. The new school building compromised sixteenclassrooms, resource rooms, multipurpose room, library, special needs room, staff room, toilets & administrative offices.

Solution:

Internal fit-out included partitioning, internal doors, Marmoleum floor covering, gas fired central heating system, telephone & data systems, PA systems and full Department of Education & Science specification mechanical & electrical fitout. Externally the building was finished with large architectural windows & a deep fascia giving the building a distinctly modern feel.

Roan Building Systems were also responsible for the overall development of the Greenfield site from foundations, car-parks, perimeter fencing, play areas & landscaping. Roan Building Systems’s experience & state of the art factory facilities enabled the company complete the 2,500sq mtr project in 16weeks. RoanKabin were able to manufacture & fitout the core building in the factory, while simultaneously developing the site.

Minister Sean Haughey opens Grangegorman school
Roan Building Systems's Grangegorman Project has scored air test rating of 4.38*. The new Educate Together school was officially opened by Minister Sean Haughey recently.

According to current building regulations (Part L 2007) 'a performance level of 10m3/h/m2 represents a reasonable upper limit for air permeability'. The Dept of Education and Science has specified an upper limit for air permeability of 5 m3/hr/m2 at 50 Pa, a far superior level than that recommended in Part L. The Roan Building Systems Building at Grangegorman, when pressure tested, achieved an impressive result of 4.3 m3/hr/m2 at 50 Pa which exceeds all requirements and contributes greatly to the Energy Efficiency of the school.

*0 is the best result and 10 is the standard value to comply with building regulations.
