Hydrotech MM6125 structural
waterproofing from Alumasc has been chosen for Glasgow’s
latest landmark building in a major regeneration project.
|
 |
|
Designed by Aedas Architects of Glasgow, Anderston Phase 5
is a £56million mixed-use development from Taylor Wimpey.
The impressive structure comprises 7 floors of office space
spanning 98,000sq feet and a 20-storey residential apartment
block, built on the former Anderston Bus Station site.
Forming part of the fifth and largest construction phase of
the Anderston regeneration project, the unique ‘L’ shaped
building dominates the new Glasgow skyline and is one of the
most prominent sights for users of the Kingston Bridge on
Glasgow’s M8 - the busiest motorway bridge in Europe. |

Alumasc approved installer
BriggsAmasco were active in the specification of Hydrotech
MM6125, which they recommended to the architects as a
durable, more cost effective alternative to mastic asphalt,
and which also offered the benefit of not requiring a
screed. |
|
Anderston Phase 5 is constructed
over several different roof levels, parts of which are used
to accommodate heavy roof-mounted M&E plant. BriggsAmasco
installed a total of 2,500m² of Hydrotech MM6125 over the
ballasted protected roof areas, resulting in a prime example
of the design potential and aesthetics that a finished
Hydrotech/Protected roof can achieve. |
|
Hydrotech is a durable, self-healing
monolithic waterproofing membrane, which was the first hot-melt
waterproofing system to be introduced to the UK construction market.
The system boasts a respected performance record spanning 45 years,
for use on protected roofs, plaza decks, green roofs, water features
or access roadways. |
|
Hydrotech’s unique formulation
guarantees lifetime performance. It is manufactured using
20% post-consumer recycled material and is supplied under
Alumasc’s ISO 14001:2004 Environmental Management Standard.
