SCOPE OF WORK The external walls of the building will be clad in a light bronze metal cladding and full height curtain walling. At first and second floors, the aluminium cladding will be flush with the face of the curtain walling caps and will have aluminium vertical solar shading fins to the East, South and West elevations. At ground floor the glazing is recessed to allow the window reveals to provide the additional solar shading. Aluminium panels at ground floor level are flush with upper floors of elevation with formed corner returns back to the recessed curtain walling. The thermal line of the external envelope is to be continuous, without thermal breaks between glazing and external wall insulation.

GGlanville 230 CONTROL SAMPLE(S): Complete sample area(s), being part of the finished work, in approved location(s) as follows and obtain approval of appearance before proceeding: Sample area to indicate all major paving materials including vehicular herringbone, clay paving and block kerbing. Each area shall be a minimum of 1.5m x 1.5m and shall be approved on site by the CA before commencing paving works. 240 ADVERSE WEATHER General: Do not use frozen materials or lay bedding on frozen or frost covered sub­bases. 242 ADVERSE WEATHER (SAND BEDDED AND JOINTED PAVING) Stockpiled bedding material: Protect from saturation. Exposed areas of sand bedding and uncompacted areas of paving: Protect from heavy rainfall. Sand bedding that becomes saturated before laying paving: Remove and replace, or allow to dry before proceeding. Damp conditions: Brush in as much jointing sand as possible. Minimize site traffic over paving. As soon as paving is dry, top up joints and complete compaction. 248 BEDDING LAYER TOLERANCES AFTER FINAL COMPACTION 50 mm nominal thickness: +15 to -20 mm. 30 mm nominal thickness: +12 to -0 mm. 250 ACCEPTANCE OF BASE: Before starting work ensure that: The sub-base surface is sound, clean, and close-textured enough to prevent loss of sand bedding into it during compaction and use. The levels and falls of the sub-base are as detailed, and within the specified tolerance. Drainage outlets are within +0 to -10 mm of the required finished level. Edge restraints, manhole covers, drainage outlets and the like are complete, to the required levels, and adequately bedded and haunched in mortar that has reached sufficient strength. Haunching to gullies, manhole covers and the inside face of edge restraints is vertical so that pavings do not 'ride up' when compacted. 260 LEVELS OF PAVING Permissible deviation from specified levels: - Generally:±6 mm. Height of finished paving above features: - At drainage channels and kerbs: +3 to +6 mm. 270 REGULARITY General: Where appropriate in relation to the geometry of the surface, variation in gap under a 3 m straight edge placed anywhere on the surface (maximum) to be 10 mm.

GGlanville 280 SAND FOR BEDDING - GENERAL USE: Naturally occurring clean sharp sand from the quaternary geological series or sea dredged, graded to BS 7533:Part 3. Free from deleterious salts, contaminants and cement. Obtain from only one source and ensure that all sand supplied has consistent grading. Maintain at even moisture content which will give maximum compaction. Sand squeezed in the hand should show no free water and bind together when pressure is released. 290 SAND FOR JOINTING (NON PERMEABLE FOOTWAYS): Clean free flowing kiln dried silica sand. Do not use sand that will stain paving blocks. Free from deleterious salts, contaminants and cement. 291 GRIT FOR JOINTING (PERMEABLE PAVING) To Hanson Formpave specification. Vibrate blocks again and remove surplus grit. 300 LAYING BEDDING: Determine by trial on site the depth of loose bedding material needed to ensure the specified thickness after final compaction of paving. Maintain an prepared area of bedding not less than 1m and not more than 3m in advance of the laying face at all times, and not more than 1m at the conclusion of any working period. Do not leave areas of bedding exposed; proceed with laying blocks/pavers immediately. Do not deliver bedding sand to working area over uncompacted paving. Prevent disturbance to the bedding course by pedestrian or wheeled traffic. Fill, rescreed and recompact any parts of the bedding layer disturbed by removal of screeds rails or trafficking. 310A LAYING BLOCKS/PAVERS: Commencing from an edge restraint, lay blocks/pavers hand tight with a joint width of 2-5 mm. Maintain an open working face and do not use mechanical force to obtain tight joints. Place blocks/pavers squarely with minimum disturbance to bedding. Supply blocks/pavers to laying face over newly laid paving but stack at least 1 m back from laying face. Do not allow plant to traverse areas of uncompacted paving. Continually check alignment of pavers with string lines as work proceeds to ensure maintenance of accurate bond. lnfill at edge restraints as work proceeds. Wherever the type of bond and angle of edging permit, avoid very small infill pieces at edges by breaking bond on the next course in from the edge, using cut locks/pavers not less than 1/3 full size. 315A OBSTRUCTIONS: After laying full paving units, trim blocks/pavers neatly around drainage fittings and other obstructions, with joints not exceeding 5 mm and without reducing the thickness of the blocks/pavers. Provide and install 'special' block units as agreed with the CA Where this is not possible, form a rectangular in situ surround of grade C35 air entrained concrete, maximum aggregate size 10 mm, to BS 5328, with a minimum thickness of the combined depth of blocks/pavers and sand bedding, and a minimum width of 100 mm all round the obstruction, colour matched to approval.

PREPARATION/ LAVING 337 CLAY PAVERS: Brush sand into the joints and remove surplus before commencing any compaction. 340 COMPACTING AND JOINTING: Thoroughly compact blocks/pavers with vibrating plate compactor as laying proceeds but after infilling at edges. Apply the same compacting effort over the whole surface. Do not compact within 1 m of the working face. Do not leave uncompacted areas of paving at the end of working periods, except within 1 m of unrestrained edges. Check paving after compacting first few metres, then at frequent intervals to ensure that surface levels are as specified; if they are not, lift blocks/pavers and relay. Brush sand into joints, revibrate surface and repeat as required to completely fill joints. Avoid damaging kerb haunching and adjacent work during vibration. Do not begin vibration until kerbs have matured. 342 SAND BEDDING LAYER TOLERANCES, after final compaction: 50 mm nominal thickness: +15/-20 mm. 30 mm nominal thickness: +12/-0 mm. 345 LEVELS OF PAVING: Permissible deviation from specified levels to be +/-6 mm generally. Set paving 6-10 mm above gullies and 3-6 mm above surface drainage channels. 360 CONDITION OF SUB-BASES/ BASES BEFORE LAYING SAND BEDDING COURSE Granular surfaces: - Sound, clean, smooth and close-textured enough to prevent migration of sand bedding into the sub-base/ overlay during compaction and use. - Free from movement under compaction plant and free from compaction ridges, cracks and loose material. Prepared existing and new bound bases (roadbases): Sound, clean, free from rutting or major cracking and cleared of sharp stones, projections or debris. Bound base (roadbase) surface tolerance: +0 to -12 mm. Levels and falls: Accurate and within specified tolerances. Drainage outlets: Within +0 to -10 mm of required finished level. Edge restraints, manhole covers, drainage outlets and the like: Complete, to required levels, and adequately bedded and haunched in mortar that has reached sufficient strength. Haunching to gullies, manhole covers and inside face of edge restraints: Vertical, so that pavings do not 'ride up' when compacted. 370 AFTER COMPLETION OF PAVING: Do not use vacuum cleaning machines. Leave a thin (1-2 mm) layer of jointing sand over the paving. 54 Ref: ST8150511/NL/DW/005 Issue 1: 29 July 2015
