Project Details
CCUK designed and fully installed this super fast carbon fibre strengthening solution. For Wates Construction.
The Challenge
The biggest challenge by far was working on a multi-dwelling site, that was completely live with housing residents in all 3 blocks on all levels. CCUK had to work extremely closely with the main contractor to execute safely our works, whilst co-ordinating with other stakeholders and contractors.
