Hilton T2 Hotel Heathrow, Walsin Facades Ltd
Customer: Walsin Facades
Project name & location: Hilton T2 Hotel, Heathrow, England
Project value: £7.5m (estimated)
Building height: 8 floors
The Heathrow project was comprised of the construction of a new 360-room hotel at Terminal 2 Heathrow Airport. To overcome the site constraints due to close proximity to the main T2 car park flyover and a cantilevered surface, it required a solution that surpassed the limitations of traditional scaffolding. Mast climbing proved to be the answer.
To address the unique demands of the Heathrow Airport hotel build, we designed a strategic setup of 13 positions, incorporating a combination of BFT120s and BFT90s. These mast climbers, deployed in both single and twin configurations, provided the much-needed flexibility and adaptability required for the project.
