Description

University Square in Southend is a student residential development for students at The University of Essex's (UoE) Southend campus. It is arranged as a series of blocks of varying heights. The tallest block has 10-storeys of student residential accommodation. Due to the nature of the insulation used in the external build-up of the rainscreen cladding system, meaning the building is not of limited combustibility, the only solution to this is to remove and replace the existing non-compliant cladding which is the subject of an enforcement notice. The vision is to remove all existing non-compliant cladding and insulation back to the concrete frame. This is to be replaced with a fully compliant and safe cladding and insulation system using non-combustible (Class A1) materials.
