Metal Technology has supplied more than £500,000 (installed value) of curtain walling, window and door systems on the new £110m Aberdeen Emergency Care Centre (AECC).
In a demonstration of confidence, the project design team at Mackie Ramsay Taylor specified Metal Technology Architectural glazing products on the scheme. System 4-20 Thermally Broken Casement Windows; System 5-20D Thermally Enhanced Doors; System 17 High Rise Curtain Walling and System 1-30 Thermally Broken Top Swing Windows were installed, providing guaranteed structural integrity, weather performance, thermal enhancement and security.
The challenging three year project, built by main contractor Robertson to tight deadlines in a live hospital setting, is the most ambitious development undertaken by NHS Grampian in a generation. The 10 storey, 350 bed facility replaces 40% of the inpatient beds at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary and 70 000 patients a year will benefit from having emergency and urgent care facilities in one building for the first time.
