St Gemma's Hospice RAAC Survey

Project type

St Gemma's Hospice RAAC Survey

Location

Leeds

We attended several existing parts of St Gemma's Hospice to survey them and determine whether RAAC was present. The structure of floors and roof elements was determined by lifting suspended ceiling panels and looking in the roof hatches. During the investigation, particular attention was paid to the concrete elements. Although concrete was used throughout, this came in a variety of forms. Distinct aggregate was identified throughout the concrete, and it did not appear to have a bubbly texture. This indicated that traditional concrete was used as opposed to RAAC. Additionally, the shape and size of prefabricated elements differed from typical RAAC panels. This was great news for the hospice which we were pleased to deliver.
