College Unveils £1m Building With Pioneering Roofline System

Construction News Image
Shrewsbury Sixth Form College in Shropshire has recently unveiled a new £1 Million building which features a pioneering roofline system.

Funding was delivered via the £57 Million Sixth Form College Building Condition Improvement Fund. A striking contemporary aesthetic was chosen for the building, which also features a “green” Sedum roof.

The scheme required a professional Aluminium roofline solution that delivered a sleek aesthetic and robust weather-proofing performance. A labour saving installation and low long-term maintenance were also key criteria for this project.

Technical consultants at Midlands-based fabrication specialists, Contour Casings Ltd, delivered a full survey, design and manufacture package, supplying hundreds of metres of wall capping, fascia and flashing.
