Specifier's choice: Imperial College Library refurbishment and extension, London
Article Abstract:
Architects John McAslan and Partners designed a twin-storey glass-clad extension to go on top of the existing library building at Imperial College, London, England. The architects specified the individual work packages, but the final responsibility for specifications rested with management contract holders Schal Construction Management. Specifications include a roof with two Rockwell layers inside steel profiles, cladding in Schuco, and raised flooring by Durabella.

Paper wait
Article Abstract:
Building Design Partnership (BDP) moved into a four-and-a half storeys plus basement building in London's Clerkenwell, the newly fashionable architect's quarter and decided to go paperless. The main aim of going paperless is to have a more efficient, nicer office than being able to sit on the edge of computerism.
