Site set up and strip out is complete across all areas, and the first fix M&E is progressing nicely throughout the scheme. The wall lining in the new nursey has been done, ready to be plastered on Tuesday. Next week sees the second fix M&E to the ATC and nursery, along with the raised platform, to allow for finishes to these areas. The continuation of first fix M&E to all other areas will also be progressed.
Our Assistant Design Manager, Amie, presented a Digital Construction masterclass to seven students at the College, which was well received. With technologies constantly evolving, it's so important to educate the future generation of talent on new and emerging technologies in the industry.
A student from the college also joined us on site for two days of work experience, shadowing our Site Manager, Harry. The student said:
‘My work experience with Sewell construction has been a pleasure. I've been given an induction, went on a site tour, and learned about the project. Harry, the Site Manager has been a great mentor and shared some industry ‘top-secret’ employability and technical skills. I've also helped facilitate external visitor tours and enjoyed sharing the knowledge I gained along the way. I'm now applying for degree apprenticeships, with high hopes and a wealth of work experience. Thank you once again for the opportunity!’
On Thursday 29 June, we welcomed four construction lecturers to one of our other West Yorkshire sites for an 'Industry Insight' work experience day.
Through the course of the day, we gave presentations on:
- Social value
- Sustainability
- Document control
- Waste management
- Site management
- Quantity surveying
- Health and safety
