  • The PRS in Scotland for Houses - Is This Meeting the Needs of Families?
    The PRS in Scotland for Houses - Is this meeting the needs of families? A Savills research report for the Scottish Futures Trust Contents 1 Executive summary 2 Scope & purpose of report 3 Macro PRS trends 4 Scotland central belt PRS analysis 5 Lessons from England on institutional PRS 2 1 Executive Summary 3 Key Findings Suburban homes that are built to rent should be part of Scotland’s housing development pipeline and strategy. They offer the potential to deliver high-quality, modern homes available for long-term rent in popular, well connected suburban locations. In supporting this tenure and type of development there is the potential to accelerate the supply of new homes, which will reduce pressure on all parts of the housing market and in turn give those living in the rental sector improved choice and a stronger sense of security. • 393,000 or 15% of households in Scotland are estimated to live in the private rented sector and there is an established suburban rental market. • At the time of the 2011 census, 38% of renters lived in houses and 58% of rental households were out with the four main cities. The Scottish Household Survey suggests that this trend has intensified with suburban areas witnessing strong rental household growth. • Accessing home ownership has become increasingly challenging as a result of increased demand. House Price Inflation has outstripped wage growth and limited development of new homes has limited supply. • As a result more people are renting, and renting for longer, often indefinitely with the need for deposits and mortgage limitations constraining access to owner occupation.

  • Edinburgh Trams: a Case Study of a Complex Project
    EDINBURGH TRAMS: A CASE STUDY OF A COMPLEX PROJECT John G Lowe1 Department of Construction Management and Economics, Glasgow Caledonian University, Cowcaddens Road, Glasgow, G3 6BU, UK The Edinburgh Tram project has proved to be politically contentious, complex, and problematical since preparatory work on services diversion commenced in 2007. The proposed network has been reduced to a single 18.5 km line linking Newhaven to Edinburgh Airport via Leith, Princes Street, Haymarket, Edinburgh Park and the Gyle. The main contract was let on a fixed price design and build basis to a consortium of Bilfinger Berger (civil engineering) works, Siemens (electrical) and CAF (tramcars). Work commenced in summer 2008. An earlier contract for the preparatory works and services diversions was carried out by Carillion. It appears likely that the project will not be completed before 2012 rather than the original target of 2011 and the budget cost of £545 million as included in the final business case appears likely to be exceeded. The early stages of the project's life have been blighted by political disputes between the Scottish National Party on one side, who have opposed the project and the other political parties including Labour, Liberal Democrats, Conservatives and Green Party on the other who have generally backed the scheme. The SNP currently form a minority administration in the Scottish Government at Holyrood and are part of the ruling coalition with the Liberal Democrats on City of Edinburgh Council who are the sponsors of the project. Since the opposition parties at Holyrood forced the finance for the project through there have been a number of high profile contractual disputes between the arms' length project company, Transport Initiatives Edinburgh and Bilfinger Berger.

  • Marks & Spencers Retail Store the Gyle Shopping Centre Edinburgh
    Project Profile Marks & Spencers Retail Store The Gyle Shopping Centre Edinburgh Roof Repair and Replacement: How to Re-Roof a Building whilst In Use This is Edinburgh’s largest Marks & Spencers retail store, at The Gyle shopping centre, built in 1993. In 2010-2011 the metal composite roof of the 106,000 sq ft retail unit rapidly developed leaks and the owners were facing months of disruption and lost revenue whilst vital re-roofing was carried out. It is possible to re-roof a building whilst trading normally, saving a retailer hundreds of thousands of pounds in lost business and Customer disruption, but the project needs to be carefully co-ordinated. What to Consider when Re-Roofing Here are some points to consider when looking at re-roofing a building in use: 1. In order to avoid noise disturbance, choose a bonded roofing material rather than mechanical fixing. At the M&S Gyle project, Graham Roofing (Scotland) Ltd used SIG Armourplan PSG120 bonded with SIG IKOpro PU Hi-Performance Adhesive. 2. Re-roofing is also a good opportunity to increase the insulation u-values of a roof, upgrading the specification and thereby mitigating future running costs. It is also essential to carry out a survey of all interfaces to ensure that any additional insulation thickness maintains compliance with minimum upstand requirements to meet the Building Regulations. 3. The greatest risk to the success of your project is poor communication, so ensure that a competent and insured Designer Manager manages and takes responsibility for the re- roofing. At M&S Gyle, SIG Design and Technology provided detailed design and Design management, giving expert and PI Insured design services, project co-ordination, Site Inspection and full system guarantees.
