Case Study4 min read
Woodside Fountain Health Centre is a bespoke build replacing the Woodside Medical Group’s premises on Western Road. The triple primary care facility offers a collaboration of services within the fully accessible building. The new health centre is comprised of 12 consulting rooms, a minor procedures room, treatment rooms, an NHS dental practice, and a team of community nurses.
LOCATIONAberdeen, UK
ProductsOPTIM-R Roofing System
The centre features a spacious roof terrace. To insulate this, whilst also maintaining an even transition from the internal area, 30 mm thickness of the OPTIM-R Roofing System was specified.
Unlike conventional insulation, OPTIM-R panels feature a microporous core which is evacuated, encased and sealed in a gas-tight envelope. This design allows the panels to achieve outstanding insulation performance with an aged thermal conductivity of 0.007 W/mK, enabling the target U-value of 0.15 W/m²K to be achieved with the slimmest possible construction.
The project was overseen by contractors Miller Construction, which was acquired by Galliford Try in 2014.
