Project Description: A project to replace the cladding and insulation to the Delaney 2 student accommodation building for Salford University, along with associated fire-stopping and remedial works to remove potential risks to occupants.
The growing concerns of cladding in the Salford area prompted the decision to sample every type of cladding material from the facades of Campus Living Villages' properties and submit them for testing with the Building Research Establishment. This led to work to replace the cladding on the Delaney 2 building during construction which had been continuing throughout the course of the academic year. The wider Peel Park student accommodation development was inhabited throughout the duration of the recladding works.
