FES has been working alongside BAM Construction to deliver a new major mixed-use development between York Street and James Watt Street in Glasgow’s International Financial Services District (IFSD) with capacity for 1,200 workers over 284,000 sq ft.

Atlantic Square will include one 10-storey commercial building and one six-storey building, with space for commercial offices and high-quality retail shops.

This works comprise of low temperature hot water installation, chilled water installation, domestic water services & above ground drainage installations, rain water harvest system, air conditioning, dry riser, sprinkler system, ventilation installation, smoke and car park vent installations, HV, LV, small power, lighting, fire alarm, PAVA, data, security, road blockers, speed gates, lightning protection, lighting controls & generators.

FES has been working closely with BAM Design to develop designs for M&E Specialist Systems to incorporate into our BIM Model Level 2. FES prefabricated solutions provided rooftop package plantrooms, riser modules, roof modules and floorplate modules to support the fast track installation to meet programme requirements.

FES Ltd was fully responsible for the MEP services on the new 155,000sq.ft Grade A Office pre-let to Morgan Stanley

With its busy inner city location and the structure’s site footprint having no lay-down areas, particular consideration was given at the design development / technical design stages with regard to the logistics element. Modules were designed in relation to maximum transportation limitations, onsite access and our lifting strategy, so that a seamless process was in place to support the construction schedule.

We engineered a model digitally to interrogate the design to a high level of detail, in conjunction with the client and design teams.

Using our Digital Engineering / Pre-Fabricated Solutions philosophy, modular components were delivered and installed on site, avoiding the risks of traditional onsite methods to offer the benefits of lean manufacturing, time, safety and sustainability. Site logistics were digitally coordinated with overnight deliveries scheduled to reduce disturbance and traffic.

The main plant is situated within the basement and roof levels with horizontal and vertical distribution around the building to meet with the architect’s layout drawings.The programme was reduced as the high level on floor service installation and services within the risers were then fully modularised, delivered and installed with the steel frame of the building.

FES Ltd are fully responsible for the fit-out and MEP services on the new 313,000sq. ft Grade A Office and 8,000sq. ft rooftop terrace complete with a running track at 177 Bothwell Street for HFD Construction. The new building has been designed to meet the needs of a future multi-tenant dwelling, with leading edge technologies, providing the ideal office environment.

With its busy inner-city location and the structure’s site footprint having no lay-down areas, a key challenge for FES was to develop an offsite approach. Consideration was given at the design development / technical design stages with regard to the logistics element, so that the modules would be designed in relation to maximum transportation limitations, onsite access and our lifting strategy, so that a seamless process was in place to support the construction schedule.

The fit out of a new 37,500m2 (gross Internal floor area) office building with basement, lower ground and thirteen upper levels at the site.  This development will provide circa 28,500m2 of net internal space with large efficient floor plates.  The building will be 84% Floor to Ceiling Glazing
