Key Achievements

  • Good relationship/cooperation within the team. Better insulation performances than the recommendations. Site management. To achieve a high standard apartments the contactor had to be very focus on precise finishing

Key Challenges

For the acoustic : prescription of solutions to insure comfort of inhabitants. The collective lodgings recommends a 53 dB between 2 apartments. Here we are beyond the regulatory requirement of acoustic insulation with 66 dB (with a SAA 160). Thermal : efficient insulation of rampant in a traditional frame/structure thanks to a Isoconfort range and in the wall with ISOVER GR range. Site management : from 20 to 30 people on site. Delivery of 30 trucks (70000 m² of plasterboards) in order to respect the cadences imposed by project manager.
