The Ropemaker development has reached the highest point of construction at a high sustainable standard, creating 450,000 sqft of office space<\/h2>\n

Skanska<\/a> is installing the mechanical, electrical and public health services, as well as the construction work at the Ropemaker development.<\/p>\n

It will deliver 450,000 sqft of office space over 26 floors at 20 and 22 Ropemaker Street, plus 10,000 sqft of retail space located on Finsbury Pavement, close to Moorgate station.<\/p>\n

Work is due to complete in the third quarter of 2023, ready for the customer to welcome its first tenants, Linklaters LLP who will use the space as their new global headquarters.<\/p>\n

Digital solutions have increased efficiency and client insight into the Ropemaker development<\/h3>\n

Team productivity has been boosted with digital rehearsals and telematics technology<\/a> on cranes to identify areas of inefficiency.<\/p>\n

Skanska\u2019s team of experts are also using a range of innovations to drive efficient working, including digital rehearsals and telematics technology on cranes to measure productivity.<\/p>\n

Digital solutions that encourage everybody to work together, such as Revitzo<\/a> have been used, with the added benefit of showing the customer how their project is progressing<\/a>.<\/p>\n

These combine subcontractor 3D models with 2D information and manipulate data to track the progress of certain aspects of the construction process, such as steelwork.<\/p>\n

Sustainable methods of construction are being used to reduce waste<\/h3>\n

Skanska are working with CO\u2014RE and Make Architects on delivering the project for Old Park Lane Management, in which high environmental targets have been set.<\/p>\n

The Ropemaker development aims to achieve a BREEAM \u2018Outstanding\u2019 and the latest version of the WELL Building Standard, Version 2 \u2013 Platinum.<\/p>\n

They are introducing sustainable techniques to reduce waste to landfill, plus water and energy use, while choosing eco-friendly materials that mitigate the impact of operations on water, land and soil quality.<\/p>\n

One example is using a secondary aggregate when mixing the concrete. This involves reusing a product from other industrial processes and reduces the amount of waste produced.<\/p>\n

A flexible workspace designed to find a balance between productivity and wellness<\/h3>\n

Ian Perry, operations director at Skanska, says: \u201cWhen finished, this building will provide a sustainable workplace that sets a benchmark for future buildings located in the city. The unique design means the office space is flexible and can adapt to different-sized businesses. This design has created five roof terraces, with access to outdoor space that provides landscaping, seating, biodiversity and nature.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the post-pandemic office environment, it\u2019s never been more important to find that balance between productivity and wellness. Spaces like this development, with top-quality facilities that earn industry-leading building certifications will be at a premium, so we\u2019re proud to bring our healthy building expertise to this fantastic project.\u201d<\/p>\n

Over 65,000 sqft of highly flexible office space remains available on the top floors of the building with terrace space in excess of 10,000 sqft and its own entrance.<\/p>\n
