Kalzip®coast to coastThis guide features Kalzip projectsspread out along the ‘M62 corridor’running from coast to coast – fromLiverpool in the west through to Hullin the east. The region has seen aspate of construction activity thathas probably been unmatchedsince the immediate post waryears. And, looking at the natureand calibre of many of theprojects – public buildings ofinternational acclaim, majorsporting facilities andsubstantial investment inthe public transportinfrastructure of the region– it is surely true to saythat there has been nothinglike it since the Victorian erawhen the region’s cities andmonuments were built from theprofits of the industrial revolution.Kalzip aluminium standing seam hasbeen a popular choice with specifiersright across the board and it is acredit to the very high levels ofdesign and installation capabilityfound amongst our approvedTeamkal network of contractors, thatthey have been involved in theconstruction of some of the mostprestigious and award winningprojects including; the Imperial WarMuseum North, The Lowry, the RoyalMail Rail Terminal and theManchester Airport Rail Station.

1. Liverpool Lime Street StationPhotography obtained withthe cooperation of Virgin trainsThe Victorian station and its twin barrelvaulted roofs are Grade II listedstructures. An £18 million roofrefurbishment programme has nowrestored the station to its formersplendour.The ratio of solid to glazed areas in thetwin roofs was a major issue in thedesign development – the aim being toenhance daylight levels at the platformwhilst emphasising the symmetry andsweep of the huge span (each roofbeing 190m long and spanning 67m).Architects Austin-Smith:Lord decidedon a combination of mill finish Kalzipaluminium standing seam with clearlaminated glass sections, the latterbeing concentrated into singlecontinuous strips to ease maintenance.Kalzip profile (600mm) was specified forcompatibility with the 600mm glazingmodule. Kalzip’s proven resistance tocorrosion and its low maintenance wereessential considerations.To ensure safe access for routinecleaning and inspection a Kalzip fallarrest system was installed.Architect:Austin-Smith:Lord2. The Academy: Liverpool Football ClubIn 1998 a total of 34 football clubsagreed to set up ‘academies’ – for theencouragement and professionaltraining of young players with astructured and approved studyprogramme for school age boys.Liverpool Football Club’s academy wasbuilt at Anfield in 1998 and is roofedwith more than 1,200 square metres ofKalzip aluminium standing seam.

3. The Roy Castle International Centre for LungCancer Research, LiverpoolThe entertainer Roy Castle spent the lastfew months of his life touring the countryto raise money for the foundation that wasto carry his name – the objective was tocreate the first dedicated centre for lungcancer research in the world.Working on a constrained budget, thearchitect and project team delivered apurpose-built centre that combinesfunctionality with strikingly impressivedesign. The centre piece is a glazedcorner section which curves and rises tothe full three storey height of thestructure.The building houses general officeaccommodation, a molecular biologylaboratory, lecture theatre, library andan epidemiology unit.Kalzip 400 profile in a stucco embossedfinish forms the barrel vault roof of thecentral section of the building with anadjoining further half barrel section.Architect:FSP Architects & Planners LtdApproved Teamkal contractor:Lakesmere Ltd4. Liverpool John Lennon AirportKalzip aluminium standing seam hasbeen specified on airports around theworld from Luton to China – it’s designcapabilities for these large scalestructures are relished by architectswhilst, at the same time, the system istested and proven to have theperformance capabilities required insuch demanding environments –acoustic insulation, corrosionresistance, thermal insulation and windloading.More than 8,500 square metres ofKalzip 400 was specified for the waveform roof of the new terminal atLiverpool John Lennon Airport whereKalzip integrated facade panels werealso used for the wall cladding. A fallarrest system was installed to providesafe access to the roof area.Architect:Leach Rhodes WalkerApproved Teamkal contractor:SIAC Construction UK Ltd

5. Blue Planet Aquarium, Ellesmere PortArchitects Buttress Fuller AlsopWilliams designed this building toresemble a crashing wave specifyingKalzip for its ability to accommodatethe demands of the geometry as wellas its low maintenance requirementsand durability in this essentially marineenvironment.The tightly curved sheets at the front ofthe building comprise ten metre lengthsof curved Kalzip 400 profile which changeradii four times within this relatively shortlength. The rest of the building is cladwith 50 metre long sheets curved on site.A Kalzip fall arrest system was installed togive safe access to the roof.The 17 acre Blue Planet complex takesvisitors on an incredible aquatic journeythrough five themed areas from mountainstreams to the depth of the ocean.Architect:Buttress Fuller Alsop Williams6. O2 Telecommunications Headquarters, RuncornA spectacular Kalzip wave form roofcrowns the O2 UK Ltd telecommunicationsheadquarters alongside the M56 nearRuncorn.The multi-purpose building houses thecustomer services, sales andadministration support of this majormobile telecommunications serviceprovider.Kalzip sheets of more than 88 metres inlength were roll-formed on site to giveunbroken coverage on the roof of morethan 9,300 square metres. The roofincorporates a continuous roof lightrunning along the length of the buildingforming an atrium to the officecomplex.A separate single storey servicebuilding is also roofed in Kalzip and asmall area of Kalzip tapered to a radiusof 25 metres forms a canopy above themain entrance area.Architects:Bradford Robertson ArchitectsApproved Teamkal contractor:Hathaway Roofing Ltd6 Kalzip coast to coast

8. Kensington Place, BoltonThis development by Portico HousingAssociation in Bolton comprises threeseparate blocks with a total of 42 flatsand eight separate Kalzip aluminiumstanding seam roofs. More than 1,500square metres of Kalzip 400 profile in astucco embossed finish were installedtogether with an equivalent quantity oftapered sheets.The design detailing on the project isabsolutely superb – note the royal blueflashings and matching lamp posts.A most striking feature is the Kalzipcanopies over the ground floorentrances – very neat.Architect:Nichol Thomas Architects9. Bury CollegeThe two new study blocks with dual pitchKalzip roofs converge and are link by a‘vista’ area protected by a quarter circletapered Kalzip canopy roof which curvesgently in a wave form.A comprehensive Kalzip system wasinstalled comprising Kalzip 400 profile in astucco embossed finish, steel decking,insulation and all associated flashings andaccessories.

10. Play Golf, Trafford ParkLocated right alongside the M60 as itpasses the Trafford Centre, Play Golf isa spectacular sight when lit in theevening – with cannonades of golf ballsfiring up into the floodlights beyond theridge of the roof.The roof is of complex design withwings curving outwards from a centralsection – rather like the horns of a bull– and sweeping across and downwardsto ground level. The whole structure isclad with Kalzip 400 profile sheets in astucco embossed finished, the sheetsbeing supplied pre-curved andincorporating tapered sections toachieve the geometry of the design.Architect:Charles Mador Chartered ArchitectsApproved Teamkal contractor:Speedwell Roofing & Cladding LtdKalzip coast to coast 9

Looking across to the facing bank of theManchester Ship Canal from The Lowry,there is now an awesome and inspiringsight – the complex, curved and soaringforms of the Imperial War MuseumNorth. The first building in the UK to bedesigned by the Berlin-based architectDaniel Libeskind, the Museum hasreceived international acclaim.The building comprises 3 monumentalcurving shards – the visual impression isthat they have crashed into one anotheras fragments of the earth shattered byconflict. The entire structure is based onthe geometry of the globe – even themain gallery floor is spherical – and theeffect is both exciting and disorienting.The building is clad almost entirely inaluminium with more than 5,000 squaremetres of Kalzip 400 profile in a millfinish comprising the roof and 6,880linear metres of 3mm gauge bespokealuminium panels set in a complexdesign to form the wall cladding. Thepanels, again in mill finish, werefabricated by Kalzip in Haydock.Approved Teamkal contractors,Broderick Structures Ltd, used 3Dcomputer modelling to master thecomplexity of the geometries involvedand many of the design details of theroof, fascia and soffit were physicallymodelled on a 1:1 scale.11. Imperial War Museum North,Salford QuaysThe Kalzip aluminium standing seamroof was configured so that its raisedseams and thermal expansion jointsfurther interpreted the design concept –the seams represent the lines oflongitude as they taper upwards acrossthe curved roof section with the taperedsections being cut to lengths that reflectthe lines of latitude.Architect:Studio Daniel LibeskindAssociate architect:Leach Rhodes WalkerApproved Teamkal contractor:Broderick Structures Ltd10 Kalzip coast to coast

12. The Lowry,SalfordQuaysBuilt with the assistance of £64 millionfrom the National Lottery, The Lowry isthe permanent home for the world’slargest collection of works by Salfordartist L.S. Lowry. The amazing stainlesssteel clad structure - complete withKalzip aluminium roofing - is thecentrepiece of the Salford Quays areaand is established as one of the city’smost popular arts and leisure venues.The roof sections comprise more than6,000 square metres of Kalzip 400profile. The architects commented, “Wechose Kalzip for reasons of economyand speed of construction. Much of theroof is constructed in stainless steel,but we needed the central areas to bemade watertight quickly. Kalzip wasideal, it’s a good product”.The complex design of the centreinvolved nine quite separate Kalziproofs and although the overall area wasnot large, delivery to site andinstallation required careful planningand co-ordination.Architect:Michael Wilford & PartnersApproved Teamkal contractor:Broderick Structures Ltd212 Kalzip coast to coast

13. Salford Water Sports Centre,Salford QuaysA complete Kalzip cladding solutionwas chosen for the new WatersportsCentre at Salford Quays with a waveformKalzip standing seam roof, Kalzipintegrated facades on all four aspectswith specially fabricated Kalzip louvresalso installed to provide naturalventilation to plant areas.An aluminium specification from SalfordCity Council architects provides theassurance of outstanding durability in ademanding waterside and city centrelocation.Approved Teamkal contractors, RedArchitectural Ltd, were responsible forthe installation of the full envelopewhich comprised a total of 900 squaremetres of Kalzip standing seam roofingand 680 square metres of Kalzipintegrated facade.The Salford Water Sports Centre hasbeen constructed by Salford CityCouncil with assistance from theNational Lottery and the support ofSport England.

This is the first intermodalinterchange of its kind in the UK providinghigh quality facilities and a focal point forarriving and departing passengers accessingthe airport via public transport.A Kalzip roof has again been specified withmore than 2,000 square metres of Kalzip 400profile sheets in a stucco embossed finishbeing used to create the gently curving roof.Architect:Abbey Holford Rowe16 Kalzip coast to coastApproved Teamkal contractor:SIAC Construction UK LtdImage courtesy of Abbey Holford Rowe

The £32 million Manchester AquaticsCentre, the centrepiece for swimmingevents during the 2002 CommonwealthGames, is a stunning modern facility,covered by 6,000 square metres ofKalzip 300 stucco embossed standingseam.Jean Paul Colback from architectsFaulknerBrowns specified Kalzip forseveral reasons, ‘It is an effectivematerial with a good life span and it isvery economical whilst presenting anexcellent external appearanceappropriate to a landmark project likethis. Critical to our specification wasthe choice of a structural deckingwithin the Kalzip system that could beconfigured to achieve the requiredlevels of acoustic performance.’Officially opened by Her Majesty, theQueen in October 2000, the AquaticsCentre is much more than just a pool. Itis designed to be a leisure complexoffering something for everyone andincludes two 50 metre pools, a divingarea and a ‘fun’ area complete withflumes, swimming and bubble pools.Architect: FaulknerBrowns16. Manchester Aquatics Centre

17. Manchester International Convention CentreThe problem facing architects SheppardRobson and Stephenson Bell – the twopractices that worked together on theproject – was the building’s location,right in the heart of the city centre,locked away between GMEX (formerlyCentral Station), the Midland Hotel, theFree Trade Hall and the Great NorthernWarehouse – an overshadowed ‘backstreet’ position. The challenge was toproduce an exemplary piece ofcontemporary architecture within thecontext of a substantially Victorian city.The team’s solution was to opt for acombination of traditional and modern.Ample use of red sandstone cladding,carried through into the foyer space,allows the Centre to harmonise with itsneighbours.The result has been widely acclaimed asa notable addition to the city’s culturalquarter. The Centre is a perfectcomplement to the GMEX exhibition hall– providing a pleasantly intimate venuefor conferences and seminars.Lead architect:Sheppard RobsonAssociate architect:Stephenson BellApproved Teamkal contractor:Blackwell Stanistreet & Co.

Kalzip aluminiumstanding seam has been specified forthree separate phases of the work andwill feature prominently on thecompleted interchange.19. RailtrackTowerThis office tower block dating from the1960’s and built immediately adjacentto the station concourse was found tobe unsound and in need of extensiverepair. The works were complex andexceedingly difficult to execute due tothe confined space and restrictedaccess to the site – the station had toremain fully operational throughout.The walls of the structure werestrengthened and reclad and the roofwas given a protective Kalzip canopy.Architect:Aukett EuropeApproved Teamkal contractor:Lakesmere Ltd20.

Almost 18,000 square metres of Kalzipaluminium standing seam forms the roofof the City of Manchester Stadium –principal venue for the CommonwealthGames 2002 before becoming the homeground of Manchester City FootballClub.Designed by Arup Associates and Arup,the sweeping roof of the stadium risesfrom the southern elevation along boththe west and east sides before dippingdown to where, after the Games, workwill begin on the construction of thenorth stand.22. City of Manchester Stadium,EastlandsWorking for construction managers,Laing, the Kalzip approved Teamkalcontractors, Broderick Structures Ltdbegan work on the first phase in April2001. The complexity of the roof designrequired absolute accuracy in the settingout of the substructure and fixings forthe Kalzip 400, stucco embossed, outersheets. The roof is divided into a seriesof segments or ‘bays’ between rafterswith a total of 55 bays in the first phaseall set at angles and varying indimension although mirrored on thefacing side. To give an indication of thedimensions involved, a central bay onthe eastern side is 8 metres wide with atotal length of 38 metres.Architect:Arup AssociatesApproved Teamkal contractor:Broderick Structures Ltd20 Kalzip coast to coast

25. Oldham Central Bus StationA focal point of Oldham’s town centreregeneration programme, OldhamCentral Bus Station has been widelyacclaimed as a light, clean and gracefulstructure that is both aestheticallypleasing and easy to use. The buildingwon a 2002 Civic Trust Award whosejudges described it as making ‘asignificant contribution to the publicdomain’.The brief from the joint clients -Oldham Metropolitan Borough Counciland the Greater Manchester TransportExecutive - to architects Austin-Smith:Lord required that the buildingshould not only have architecturalimpact but should also be durable andrequire little (and low cost)maintenance.With performance proven over 35 yearsof installation in some of the mostarduous industrial and city centreenvironments, Kalzip aluminiumstanding seam manufactured fromhighly durable and unique clad alloymaterial was the obvious choice for theroofing material in this exposedlocation – Oldham town centre is oneof the highest points in GreaterManchester. Kalzip 305 profile wasspecified for the long and narrowsweeping roof with the curved form ofan elongated letter ‘S’. The geometrywas achieved by the interspersion oftapered profile sheets and the roof isfinished by a surround of powdercoatedaluminium bullnose fascias.Architect:Austin-Smith:Lord26.

31. The Deep, HullHull’s £45.5 million MillenniumCommission Lottery project – The Deep– the world’s only submarium whichincludes the deepest display tank inEurope, is roofed with Kalzip aluminiumstanding seam.Located at the confluence of the riversHull and Humber where it seems to risespectacularly out of the water, thisstrikingly unusual building wasdesigned by Sir Terry Farrell whodescribes its dramatic appearance as‘a geological monolith… a rock face’.Apart from its aesthetic statement, thedesign of The Deep was driven by theneed for tremendous strength – ithouses tanks containing 2,850 tonnesof water – and, in this exposedposition, the need to use only highlydurable external cladding materials.Kalzip 400 profile stucco embossedsheets manufactured from the highestquality aluminium alloy provideexceptional longevity with minimalmaintenance in this marineenvironment. Aluminium is noncorrosiveand can withstand prolongedexposure to wind-driven salt and sand.The architect also specified marinegrade aluminium panels alongsidevitrified glass for the wall cladding ofThe Deep.Almost 1800 square metres of Kalzipstanding seam complete with structuralsteel decking (colour coated white onthe inner surface), rock fibre insulationand a vapour control barrier comprisethe roof structure.
