    Case Studies DALMARNOCK POWER STATION, RIVERSIDE, GLASGOW Description: Land Reclamation and Remediation Form of Contract: NEC3 Option A Duration: 60 weeks Contract Value: £3,400,000 Client: Clyde Gateway Clients Representative: Grontmij This reclamation contract was on the site of the once colossal Dalmarnock Power Station, located in the East End of Glasgow. The power station was closed in 1977 and subsequently demolished to ground level with the demolished structures used to backfill the substantial underground voids (basements, tunnels etc). Our scope of work involved major land reclamation, remediation of contaminated soils, bulk earthworks and drainage to provide development platforms on the 9ha site. The site is located in a sensitive area bounded by residential properties, the River Clyde and a railway line which required close liaison with all stakeholders for the duration of the project. Dalmarnock Road Drainage Crib wall Borrow Pit Dalmarnock Road Tunnel SUDS Pond Power Station Building Footprint Railway Line Perimeter Wall River Clyde Walkway River Clyde By far the largest element of the reclamation works involved the controlled demolition of the old power station foundations. Over 60,000m3 of reinforced concrete (R.C.) was broken out, at depths up to 5m. Careful consideration was given to neighbouring properties during this stage of the work. To reassure residents during this stage of the contract, we undertook numerous structural surveys of properties prior to demolition and established vibrographs at strategic locations to monitor vibration during demolition. All concrete was processed to provide engineered fill for the required development platform. www.ihbrown.com Case Studies The removal of the substantial perimeter wall included a section which ran parallel with the River Clyde Walkway.

The city of Glasgow was, quite literally, built on its geology – it may even have been named after one of its rocky features.

In 2013 the British Geological Survey Quarrying and building stone conducted a Geodiversity Audit of Sandstones in the Carboniferous sedimentary rocks in the Glasgow the City of Glasgow for Glasgow City area were commonly quarried for Council to identify and describe the building stone.

  • Twentyci Property & Homemover Report
    TwentyCi Property & Homemover Report – Q3 2017 Information embargoed until Wednesday 4th October 2017 at 00:01 Welcome to the latest TwentyCi Property & Homemover Report, a quarterly review of the UK property market. As a life event data company, TwentyCi has exclusive access to more than 29 billion qualified data points across the whole of the property sector – for both property purchases and rental. In addition to tracking sales momentum, this ‘state of the nation’ report provides unique insight into the people behind the numbers, creating a picture of the demographic, regional and socio-economic factors impacting the housing market. With a 99.6% view of both the property sales and rental markets, the TwentyCi Property & Homemover Report is the most comprehensive factual source of home moving data available. Key take-outs for Q3 2017 • Overall the volatile market is starting to stabilise with exchanges up 15.2% year-on-year and house prices increasing by 1.5% for the year. However London experiences lower growth in exchanges than the rest of the UK at 9% year-on-year, and prices drop by 8.4% in the Capital – one of the key reasons behind the overall fall in price for the market. • While the majority of market activity is for properties under £250k and with sub £50k household incomes, the biggest growth in transactions this quarter has been among buyers in higher income bands purchasing higher value properties. • Online-only estate agents’ market share increases by 19% this quarter. All data is based on Q3 2017 versus Q3 2016 year-on-year comparisons unless otherwise stated.
