HRA - P1446 - Vallum House Soil Stack Replacement

Description

The multi storey building, Vallum Court, Westgate Road, Newcastle upon Tyne NE4 6NQ was constructed in 1965 and has 120 dwellings spread over 20 floors. The original 6 soil stacks have been identified as being in a state of disrepair and require replacing with an upgraded HDPE system. The works will include breaking in to existing ducts via the individual flats and isolate all connected waste pipes. Remove the existing soil stacks in sections from each flat and replace with HDPE Terrain Fuze system or similar. All floor levels that the stacks run through must be sealed using the appropriate fire collars as per Building Regulations 2010 Part B. Individual compression tests are required at each stage to test the joints of the new stack sections, once this has been completed the duct walls can be reinstated to required fire rating and include a fire rated access panel/hatch. Once all the waste connections have been reinstated and tested, the new duct walls and associated areas can be plastered/decorated as required.
