PROJECT DETAILS
Client: Cardiff University
Contractor: R&M Williams
Location: Cardiff
Contract Value: £195,000
Duration: Ongoing
Cardiff University was founded in 1883, and is established as one of Britain’s leading research universities. With a diverse national and international student population maintaining a safe environment that’s fully functional for students to live is a priority.
Senghennydd hall is a part catered hall of residence, close to the University and City Centre, that houses just over 100 students.
Tremorfa were appointed in June 2017 to carry out works to modify blocks H & P including, installation of general purpose distribution and small power system, installation of general lighting system, alterations to the fire alarm system and new door access.
Both blocks required new panel boards and sub mains. All lighting installations comprised of LED normal and emergency lighting.
One block required extra fire detection and an additional interface whilst the other needed a complete rewire. Finally, new access door control was fitted with a fire alarm interface alongside the control box.
Tremorfa provided all these services on time, to the specification and to budget. Having worked with Cardiff University in the past on other projects, a practical cost-effective job was inevitable and delivered.

PROJECT DETAILS

Contractor: Wernick
Location: Elephant & Castle
Contract Value: £491,000
Duration: November 2016 – December 2016
Southwark Council is leading a 3-billion-pound regeneration programme that will provide an exciting new destination in London with retail, commercial, leisure and residential properties.
Due to be completed in 2025 it became apparent to deliver all the specific works, on time a collaborative facilitated environment needed to be constructed. To ensure a smooth collaborative working environment, a temporary work environment on site was needed.
Tremorfa secured this Primary Site Accommodation contract in 2016 delivering the Primary Site Welfare and Project Offices for the Lend Lease Elephant Park regeneration project working with Wernick Building Services. This included the design, supply, delivery, construction, certification, and fit out-out of electrical services for a four-storey modular accommodation. The main goal of this accommodation was to incorporate welfare accommodation for 1200 operatives, and office facilities for 350 persons. The temporary accommodation is required for a 5-year period (until 2021) and Tremorfa’s works were completed in 2016 to ensure the smooth transition of the workforce beginning the project construction at Elephant Castle.
Tremorfa were required to complete all detailed design, including floor layouts and room data sheets. Alongside this Tremorfa designed, supplied and installed LED lighting throughout, pendent light fixings, emergency lighting, external flood lighting, electrical outlets, data points and phone lines.

ATOMIC WEAPONS ESTABLISHMENT
PROJECT DETAILS
Client: AWE
Contractor: Tremorfa Ltd
Location: Southern England
Contract Value: £500,000.00
The Atomic Weapons Enterprise based in southern England provides and maintains nuclear warheads for the Ministry of Defence and is recognised as a centre for scientific, engineering and technological excellence, equipped with some of the most advanced research, design and production facilities in the world.
Tremorfa were contracted to carry out an electrical installation on this site.
As was to be expected, the security on this site operated at the highest possible level, and meant that each of our suppliers had to be security vetted. We had to provide names and vehicle registration of all suppliers and any other vehicles at least 24 hours in advance, as well as make sure each driver had photographic ID on their person. Engineers on site also had to operate under the most stringent of security situations, including how to react in a terrorist situation.
During this install, a number of contractors were asked to leave site because they did not meet the strict security rules laid out by AWE. Not only did Tremorfa remain on site, but we were also asked to carry out the outstanding work of those that had been removed.
