Addiscombe Oaks

Addiscombe Oaks

Keyfix

IntroductionThe Keyfix Non-Combustible Cavity Tray has been installed as part of a new-build project, Addiscombe Oaks in South London, helping to safeguard the development from fire and future building regulation changes.OverviewAddiscombe Oaks is a residential housing development designed by Gardner Stewart Architects (GSA) and developed by L&Q. This new-build development offers a selection of contemporary studio, one, two and three bedroom apartments. Conveniently located in East Croydon, residents of Addiscombe Oaks will benefit from quick transport links into London Bridge, Brighton and Gatwick airport, in addition to nearby shopping centres and parks.Working alongside brickwork contractor Lee Marley Brickwork, Keyfix supplied 2,200 metres of its Non-Combustible Cavity Tray (NCCT), 434 preformed Corner Units, 1,362 preformed Reveal Returns, 8,700 weep vents, as well as Non-combustible Cavity Tray Lintels (NCCTL) over 264 openings.The primary objective for the client was to ensure that the building was constructed in line with updated building regulations, and to ensure that the building would be future-proofed against potential regulation changes. Keyfix was able to meet this objective, as its NCCT is designed to last for the life of the building. The Keyfix NCCT is a fully compliant, A1 fire-rated system, manufactured using Class A1 Non-combustible Grade 304 austenitic stainless steel, resulting in a lifespan of 125+ years for the entire system. Therefore, its use ensures that the building is protected, should building regulations become stricter in the future.ChallengeFurthermore, the main challenge the client faced on the project was keeping to the tight project timeframes. The project ran from October 2021 to August 2022, and the main contractor required an accredited solution which could be delivered in line with the tight-build programme. Keyfix resolved this challenge by supplying products which improved buildability. In particular, the provision of preformed corner units helped to significantly save time on installation.SolutionThe Keyfix NCCT was specified due to its ‘self-supporting one-piece system’ which allows for an easy and efficient installation. The NCCT’s unique design incorporates a stainless steel tray to provide rigid self-support across the clear cavity and requires no reinforcement from the internal structure using mastics or tapes. This design saves precious time for the bricklayer and eliminates clashes with other components.Likewise, the Keyfix Non-Combustible Cavity Tray Lintel was specified due to its A1 Fire Rating, high performance stainless steel, and ease of installation. As the NCCTL requires no tape or mastics, it is a system that allows the contractor to ‘fix and forget’. The design of the NCCTL also incorporates mechanically fixed Stop Ends to capture and channel water outwards via the Keyfix NCW (Non-combustible Weep). The NCCTL is the maintenance-free solution that can accommodate openings up to 2822.5mm, with lintel lengths based on brickwork opening sizes with the range based on 215mm stretcher bond as standard.Moreover, Keyfix supports its clients with the provision of a technical review of architects drawings and a comprehensive schedule and location layout plan on every project. On Addiscombe Oaks, Keyfix engaged with L&Q and Lee Marley Brickwork early on so that any challenges could be resolved before construction took place, ensuring that the project ran smoothly. Keyfix’s team attended design meetings, followed up with calls to site, and provided a Tool Box Talk and CPD webinar presentations to provide technical support and educational resources alongside its products.Martyna Kielbasa, Senior Design and Technical Manager at L&Q commented: “The non-combustible cavity tray was specified as it aligned with the non-combustible scheme throughout the whole development. Keyfix’s representatives supported our subcontractor throughout the construction process by assisting with technical reviews, itemised schedules and sign-offs on specs.”Commenting on the NCCT, Kieran Coyle of Keyfix stated, “The Keyfix Non-Combustible Cavity Tray is an A1 fire-rated system, ensuring our customers peace of mind as their buildings are future-proofed and safeguarded against fire, in addition to onsite efficiency.”Addiscombe Oaks is now complete, with the Keyfix Non-Combustible Cavity Tray system having played an essential role in the construction of a safe residential development that is future-proof against possible regulation changes.

Barking Riverside

Keyfix

The main developers overseeing a major development project in the heart of East London tasked Keyfix with supplying its market-leading Non-combustible Cavity Trays (NCCT) for application across the site.The Barking Riverside project, part of a major £124 million package of works, saw 3,500 family homes built and designed by main developers L&Q Group, brickwork contractors DWG Scaffolding and Brickwork, and architects Boon Brown. With the main developers focused on complying with, and even exceeding, current building regulations, and conscious of sustainability targets, they were keen to ensure the homes were futureproofed.With that in mind, plus a desire to keep the project on time and to budget, the developers chose Keyfix to supply its innovative NCCTs and corner units. Offering superior thermal efficiency and designed to minimise thermal bridging, while also being quick and easy to install, Keyfix’s market-leading products were the ideal choice.For such a monumental project, Keyfix designed and supplied 18,088 metres of its Non-combustible Cavity Tray System (NCCT), which encompassed 3,884 pre-formed Corner Units, with several including a bespoke dog-toothed deisgn, 2,712 Non-Combustible Cavity Tray Lintels (NCCTL), and 48,200 Non-combustible Weeps.Jack Gadd, Group Director at DWG Scaffolding and Brickwork, praised the quality of Keyfix’s products and highlighted the significant impact that the close collaboration and working relationships had on the success of the project.“The project ran smoothly, due in no small part to the engagement with Keyfix, ourselves, and L&Q. While there were no major challenges, any slight queries or issues were quickly sorted during the meetings”“We were very impressed with the quality of the NCCT system, pre-formed pier units, and NCCT lintels. The pier units coming as a one-piece component really helped to speed up installation and enable cost savings”The A1 fire rated NCCT system is manufactured from austenitic Grade 304 stainless steel, ensuring the highest standard of fire resistance for the building. In addition to making sure the building remains damp-proofed, the enduring quality of the stainless steel will guarantee longevity and ongoing resilience for over a century. The result of this is that the building will remain compliant with ever-changing regulations if they are to become more stringent.The construction of the 3,500 homes was just the start for the 443-acre brownfield site formerly occupied by Barking Power Station. Once the entire package of works is completed, the site will become one of Europe’s largest placemaking projects, with another 16,500 homes, enhanced green spaces, seven new schools, and a substantial area of retail, employment, and public space set to create a local community of up to 50,000 people.For more information about the Keyfix range of non-combustible solutions download the product guide, visit https://keyfix.com/ or for technical support call 028 8676 7508 or email info@keyfix.com.

Chobham Manor

Chobham Manor

Keyfix

IntroductionThe Keyfix Non-Combustible Cavity Tray System has played an important role in futureproofing a major new residential development in Stratford’s Olympic Park by exceeding new building regulations whilst improving build quality and installation efficiency on site.OverviewLocated in the very heart of the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, Chobham Manor in East London is the first of five new neighbourhoods in the former home of the 2012 Olympics. Comprising 850 new one, two and three-bed homes alongside community facilities, shops, public green spaces and community areas, this stunning new development has sustainability at its core with all homes built to the Code for Sustainable Homes Level 4.In a design by JSA Architects and built by Taylor Wimpey, the layered brickwork façade features projected bay windows, balconies and set back terraces. To meet the requirements and a tight build programme, Keyfix worked with subcontractor Chine Brickwork and supplied 4545 metres of Keyfix Non-Combustible Cavity Trays (NCCT) along with Corner Units and Weeps on blocks A, B and C which form Phase Four of the development.ChallengeThe challenges for Keyfix were the unique brickwork build programme which incorporated two runs of cavity trays being supplied per floor to accommodate brickwork corbelling and recessed brickwork.SolutionAs the corbels where built at a different stage on the build programme so the Keyfix Non-combustible Cavity Trays had to project out either side of the pier when initially being installed. Therefore, when the infill corbels where being built the continuous run of tray could link in seamlessly. A task that would have been near impossible had the system relied on tapes or mastics to make the linking joint.The Keyfix stainless steel NCCT was specified due to its self-supporting system which doesn’t need fixing back to the internal concrete frame and clips together for fast and easy installation. It is essentially a ‘Fix & Forget’ solution with no additional fixings, sealants or onsite fabrication required by the brickwork contractor. Therefore, installation of the trays did not impede the speed of bricklaying even when compared to traditional DPC. Installed in the outer leaf with no connection with the inner skin, this innovative cavity tray system does not create a thermal bridge and eliminates all differential movement issues.With a lifespan of 125+ years it is the only non-combustible cavity tray system that does not rely on tapes and mastics to make watertight joints, therefore elimating one of the main reasons for product failure.Commenting Kieran Coyle of Keyfix said: “Holding an A1 Fire Rating, the Keyfix non-combustible cavity tray solution exceeds the minimum standards set out in ADB (Approved Document B), whilst ensuring this new development meets and exceeds the latest regulations. If the regulations become stricter, it will also be futureproofed maximising the whole-life value of the development.”The award-winning Chobham Manor Phase Four is now complete, with the Keyfix Non-combustible Cavity Tray playing an integral part in the creation of a safe and resilient development that will transform the Olympic Park into a lasting legacy for East London.For more information about the Keyfix range of non-combustible solutions download the product guide, visit https://keyfix.com/or for technical support call 028 8676 7508 or email info@keyfix.com

Mount Pleasant

Mount Pleasant

Keyfix

A major new build construction project in the heart of London, Mount Pleasant, required Keyfix’s market-leading and A1 fire-rated Non-combustible Cavity Tray System (NCCT) to ensure it was future-proofed for many years to come.The £45 million project, overseen by main contractor and developer, McAleer & Rushe, involved the transformation of the former Royal Mail Mount Pleasant sorting office in Farringdon, London, into 131 new mixed-tenure residential apartments across three blocks, varying in heights of four, eight, and 10 storeys. The development also includes external communal spaces, cycle storage, car park spaces, and a wellness centre comprising of a gym, sauna, swimming pool, and treatment facilities.With McAleer & Rushe keen to meet tight deadlines, speed of installation was imperative. As a result, Keyfix’s expertise and proven Pre-formed Corner units were required from Phase Two of the project.Keyfix supplied 2,400m of its NCCT, including 1,830 pre-formed Corner Units and 9,500 Non-combustible Weeps on Phase 2 of the Mount Pleasant Project. Keyfix’s sister company Keystone Lintels also provided Non-combustible Cavity Tray Lintels (NCCTL). Additionally, IG Masonry Support, another member of the Keystone Group, designed and manufactured Folded Angles, Folded Angle Piers, and Welded Masonry Support for Blocks B, C, and D of the development.This close collaboration of Keystone Group companies meant that our teams could offer a combined solution to McAleer & Rushe, ensuring that the slab edge remained decongested, safe-proofing the building. This level of collaboration helps limit downtime, reduces the level of re-work, speeds up the build programme, and ultimately reduces unnecessary costs.With future-proofing the building a major focus for McAleer & Rushe in case regulations become more stringent, Keyfix’s A1 fire-rated NCCT was chosen as it exceeds the current building regulations and does not contribute to fire loading. Furthermore, the enduring quality of the stainless steel ensures the system typically outlasts the lifespan of the building.McAleer & Rushe designed this build to achieve a BREEAM ‘Very Good’ rating and a Code for Sustainable Homes Level 4 certification, so Keyfix’s sustainability and buildability-focused NCCT was the ideal choice as Keyfix’s NCCT is manufactured from Grade 304 austenitic stainless steel which is 100% recyclable. Keyfix’s NCCT also features a unique design that enables the stainless steel tray to be self-supporting across the cavity. This commercially-viable and rapid-build system is self-supporting and does not connect to the internal structure making it more thermally efficient, whilst avoiding issues typically associated with differential movement.Keyfix’s technical team actively supported the project by conducting site visits to monitor progress, participating in design team meetings, and delivering CPD webinars and toolbox talks. They also prepared a detailed component schedule and layout plan that integrated all three Keystone Group products on a single drawing, based on the architect’s plans.For more information about the Keyfix range of non-combustible solutions download the brochure, visit https://keyfix.com/ or for technical support call 028 8676 7508 or email info@keyfix.com

The project comprises 320 new homes, of which 20% are for private sale, 24% for Shared Ownership, and 56% for rent in order to accommodate a mixed tenure community. The modern, stylish homes are in close proximity to the local amenities and parks, with excellent transport links to London.Working alongside brickwork contractor Lee Marley Brickwork, Keyfix supplied 3,772m of its Non-Combustible Cavity Tray (NCCT), 3,528 units of corners, and 20,774 units of its Non-combustible Weep Vents to this project. Keyfix’s sister company Keystone Lintels supplied 890m of its Non-Combustible Cavity Tray Lintel, which was powder coated as per the client’s request.Challenge The main challenge faced on this project was the brevity of the programme, which ran from November 2020 to November 2021. As the project was time sensitive, the main contractor required an accredited solution which could be supplied in line with the tight-build programme. Keyfix’s NCCT presented the ideal solution to this challenge.SolutionKeyfix was able to meet the client’s objectives by providing products in accordance with their tight-build programme. To ensure the maximum efficiency of installation, Keyfix designed various types of bespoke units including preformed corners and pier units to assist Lee Marley brickwork in keeping to its the fast-paced build programme. Due to the scale of the project, the products were prefabricated, allowing the brickwork to be conducted swiftly. Despite the bespoke nature of the products, the first delivery was made just two months after the initial enquiry in September.Duncan Marley, Contracts Director at Lee Marley Brickwork commented: “On the Park East development we required various bespoke products and Keyfix were able to provide a quick turnaround on those. The Keyfix NCCT also helped us to save time significantly because the system is so quick to install. Keyfix also provided us with a scheduled breakdown of components which was a great help.”The Keyfix NCCT was specified due to its ‘one-piece system’ which allows for a very simple and efficient installation. The system is self-supporting as it doesn’t require fixing back to the internal frame, therefore saving valuable time. Additionally, the adjustability of the perp joint allows for the cavity trays to be shunted to match the brick coursing on site, ensuring consistency in the brickwork formation.The NCCT was also chosen due to its A1 fire rating. It is made from non-combustible Grade 304 stainless steel which will never contribute to fire loading in the building. This fully compliant system ensures that the Park East buildings will be future-proofed against the implementation of tighter regulations.The non-combustible nature of the product makes it an effective solution to provide DPC protection over lintels, masonry supports, soffit systems and other elements in the cavity such as fire barriers.

Verdo-Kew Bridge

Keyfix

IntroductionThe speed of installation and improved build quality of the Keyfix Non-Combustible Cavity Tray System has played an important part in the construction of a major new high-rise residential development in West London and at the same time help meet and exceed regulatory requirements.OverviewLocated close to the Thames in Brentford West London, Verdo – Kew Bridge is a new mixed use development which forms part of a major new regeneration scheme that includes the new community stadium for Brentford FC. Designed by Broadway Malyan and built by developer EcoWorld, it comprises of 487 new one, two and three-bed homes alongside retail and business spaces, public green spaces and community areas.In order to safeguard the future of the development, Keyfix supplied 765 metres of Keyfix Non-Combustible Cavity Trays (NCCT) along with 2490 Corner Units, 4000 Pier Units and 5000 Weeps on blocks E,F,G and H of the development.ChallengeOne of the key challenges for Keyfix was the brickwork build programme which required early completion at the lower grid line levels of one to six. This was due to the scaffolding needed to be stripped away because it was blocking a walkway at Brentford Stadium and therefore needed to be cleared prior to the start of the new football season.SolutionWorking to a tight schedule, the offsite fabrication and preforming of bespoke non-combustible cavity tray units in line with the brickwork set out drawings saved time for the installation team at brickwork contractor DWG. This one-piece NCCT system allowed for a very simple and very efficient install, enabling the brickwork façade to continue at a fast pace.The Keyfix stainless steel NCCT was specified due to its self-supporting system which doesn’t need fixing back to the internal concrete frame and clips together for fast and easy installation. It is essentially a ‘Fix & Forget’ solution with no additional fixings, sealants or onsite fabrication required by the brickwork contractor. Therefore, installation of the trays did not impede the speed of bricklaying even when compared to traditional DPC. Installed in the outer leaf with no connection with the inner skin, this innovative cavity tray system does not create a thermal bridge and eliminates all issues associated with differential movement.Furthermore, the NCCT is manufactured with integral Stop Ends on each cavity tray to ensure water is trapped and channelled outwards via a Keyfix Non-combustible Weep (NCW). The integral Stop Ends also facilitate perp joint width adjustability of +/- 3 mm between 7–13 mm if required.With a lifespan of 125+ years it is the only non-combustible cavity tray system that does not rely on tapes and mastics to make watertight joints, therefore eliminating one of the main reasons for product failure.Commenting on the project, Kieran Coyle, Keyfix Technical Sales Manager said: “Verdo – Kew Bridge was the first project in which we created and used a Component Schedule and this is now the same component schedule template we use on every project. It allows installers to use new Component Codes to identify the different components and install the system to its full integrity.”Holding an A1 Fire Rating, the Keyfix non-combustible cavity tray solution exceeds the minimum standards set out in ADB (Approved Document B), whilst ensuring this major new development meets and exceeds the latest regulations. If the regulations become stricter, it will also be futureproofed maximising the whole-life value of the development.Set to make its mark on West London, Verdo – Kew Bridge is on track for completion, with the Keyfix Non-combustible Cavity Tray meeting the contractors requirements and enabling the creation of a development that has safety built in.For more information about the Keyfix range of non-combustible solutions download the product guide, visit https://keyfix.com/or for technical support call 028 8676 7508 or email info@keyfix.com
