Innovation

The Sisk digital construction team completed a fully coordinated design of 3D, 4D, and 5D Building Information Models (BIM). BIM 4D applications were used for construction sequencing and simulation, progress reviews (actual vs. planned), method statements, traffic management, visualisation and walkthroughs, health and safety reviews, and hazard identification.

Sustainability

We supported ‘One Planet Living’ with initiatives including our approach to remediation works on the contaminated site, remote energy management, smart metres for lighting, heating, site power, and crane usage. 

Bonham Quay has been designed and built to create a healthy, greener work environment where it is easy to make sustainable choices.
