Tremough Campus Phase1

Falmouth, Cornwall

Project: New build Student accommodation campus with Timber frame construction, cedar panelling exterior with slate and render.

New build Student accommodation campus comprising of ten accommodation blocks and 530 student apartments. Porters lodge, staff flats, 2 laundries, conference car park, Timber frame construction cedar panelling exterior with slate and render.

The brief for Glasney Parc Student Accommodation scheme was to create a student village offering accommodation for 500 students, which would act as a flagship for the Combined Universities in Cornwall initiative – designed to attract higher education students to the region and to offer students in Cornwall a way of continuing their education without leaving the county.

Midas Constructions biggest challenge was to meet the immovable deadline for hand-over of the project, despite delay s in planning permissions, the supply of some vital materials (such as the windows) and the lack of readily available additional labour.  Early hand-over was achieved through excellent co-operation and communication between the client, construction team and supply chain using regular ‘all-inclusive’ meeting and Midas new Union Square Server.
