MDSL has completed the full M&E packages for the 30,000 sqm Caerphilly District General Hospital located in South Wales.

MDSL's work included; custom designed 2-D and 3-D modules incorporating a wide range of services, including ventilation ductwork, heating, cooling and domestic water pipe work, electrical containment, sprinkler systems, medical gases and rainwater. Services are tested and insulated at works before despatch.

The modules werre produced in a variety of sizes to suit site conditions with the frames incorporating wheels for ease of handling both in the factory and on site. Riser modules incorporating all the services in the horizontal modules are designed and produced in sizes and lengths to suit the needs of individual sites.

Technical highlights

• Fully serviced modules
• Heating and cold water
• Fully lagged and insulated
• Containment fitted

Salford Gateway is a high-rise complex in the centre of Manchester with an exceptional finish on the office complex and full co-operation between main contractor and offsite approach. Off site manufacturing was essential due to the constraints of the location.

Technical highlights

• Multi service risers
• Ventilation risers
• Fully coordinated in sections
• Fully lagged
• Mechanical riser

Hammersmith Grove is a High rise complex in London consisting of service risers. An exceptional finish on the office complex with full co-operation between main contractor and offsite approach, off site manufacturing was essential due to the constraints of the location.

This process ensures the offsite-fabricated services are coordinated with the traditional services to which they connect within the remainder of the building. The method of delivery and introduction of the offsite-fabricated product into the building forms an integral part of these early discussions.

Technical highlights

• Multi service risers
• Ventilation risers
• Fully coordinated in sections
• Fully lagged
• Mechanical riser

MDSL completed the corridor modules for the office complex in Hammersmith London. Custom designed 3-D modules incorporated a wide range of services, heating, cooling, domestic water pipe work and electrical containment. Services were tested and insulated at our facility before delivery.

Modules were produced in a variety of sizes to suit site conditions with the frames incorporating wheels for ease of handling both at our facility and on site. The extremely tight programme, meant offsite manufacturing techniques for the corridor modules was essential.

Offsite fabrication provides a high quality completed product that can be programmed to achieve a critical delivery milestone within the building construction process. The offsite process is not weather dependent and utilises production techniques that are significantly faster than traditional on site methods. The reduced site installation times also permit shorter program periods to be achieved.

Technical highlights

• Fully serviced modules
• Heating and cold water
• Fully lagged and insulated

MDSL delivered the off site manufacturing for this prestigious office complex in the centre of Birmingham. Off site manufacturing was essential due to the constraints of the location.

This Santander data centre in Leicester was largest in the UK at the time of construction. The project, consisting of two buildings constructed in parallel with six halls in each had an extremely tight programme and without off site manufacturing the handover deadline would not have been achieved.

All aspects of the M&E were prefabricated at our facility and at the time, this project had the largest variations of products off sited on a single site. All products were manufactured from tru-bore thin walled stainless steel tube.

Technical highlights

• 120 in line modules
• 72 access modules
• 16 pump skids
• 12 chiller modules
• 1,500 loose fabricated spools
• 12 risers (3 modules per riser)

This project consisted of the construction of a new data centre in Manchester to achieve BREEAM. The Facility includes staff accommodation, office space, circulation, welfare and kitchen areas. MDSL provided a range of off-site solutions which exceeded client expectations and helped achieve delivery on time and within budget.
