Steel-framed Maidenhead offices completed

Main contractor VolkerFitzpatrick has celebrated the completion of its second office block at Foundation Park, Maidenhead.

Providing 5,200m² of Grade A office space over three floors, Snashall Steel Fabrications fabricated, supplied and erected 400t of steelwork for the project.

The building features open-plan workspaces, a full-height atrium with internal staircase, and a roof terrace. The structure also features energy-saving LED lighting and photovoltaic roof panels.

According to VolkerFitzpatrick, throughout the project, the team worked strategically to overcome a series of logistical challenges, not least working within a live business park, neighbouring an aerodrome.

Close collaboration with the airport during the planning phase allowed both parties to coordinate their schedules, ensuring that work to erect the building’s steel frame could proceed on time, with minimal disruption.

Scott Reynolds, Project Manager at VolkerFitzpatrick, commented: “This high-quality project was delivered on time and within budget and I would like to thank the core team involved who showed real teamwork to complete the build in under twelve months.”
