UK: Fleming Timber Structures
wins hat-trick of new contracts |
Twechar Outdoor Pursuits Centre Fleming Timber Structures has secured three new contract wins spanning education, sport and funeral care projects for a variety of main contractors across Scotland. The firm is partnering again with Morrison Construction as it delivers the £18.5 million contract to build the new Whitecraig Primary School in East Lothian. With the area enjoying a significant increase in population as a result of several new housing developments, the original school - first erected in 1959 - will be replaced with a new building, featuring eight classrooms and a nursery/early learning facility. Additionally, the project will feature a dedicated community entrance and improved pedestrian cycling safety measures, to account for increased traffic. Fleming Timber Structures is providing an optimised structural solution incorporating timber frame panels, floor and roof cassettes, along with some impressive glulam beams which are over 15m in length.
