CASE STUDY: GH20 GRANARY QUAY, GLASGOW Granary Quay, the third phase of the Dandara riverside masterplan in Glasgow Harbour, is a remarkable riverside rental development which stands as a testament to innovation in construction. The project delivered 342 new
homes on the banks of the River Clyde and has successfully revitalised an empty area of land and introduced a vibrant way of living to the community. Creagh Concrete was entrusted with the design, manufacturing and installation of the precast frame and sandwich panels, a decision which ultimately streamlined the construction process. The use of a limited palette of architectural concrete finishes contributed to the buildings’ aesthetic appeal. The construction involved concrete sandwich panels and a precast frame, all of which were fabricated with windows fitted prior to delivery to the site. The entire on-site assembly was completed within an impressive timeframe of one year. Creagh Concrete chose Rapidres®, a fast-track offsite cross-wall build system developed for residential projects, including apartments, student accommodation, hotels, social housing and custodial accommodation.
Rapidres® is ideally suited to multi- storey projects where the layout is replicated across each floor. It is a high-performance precast insulated sandwich panel built offsite for high-quality factory internal finishes with a wide range of external finishes which can match that of virtually any other build type. Creagh Concrete is changing the way people think about concrete and continues to provide new solutions across the construction industry. Driven by its principles and fuelled by passion, the company is committed to quality and excellence and strives to maintain the highest standards in all its endeavours.
