St Luke's Cancer Care

Providing care for cancer patients across the county, this clinic has undergone work to extend and refurbish the space within the clinic: including the creation of nearly double the amount of existing clinical space, spacious entrances, and a whole range of additional clinical facilities.

Challenge

Specialist roofing company Salnor Roofing Services Ltd were contracted to secure the roof of the clinic, a flat roof with varying levels of tapered insulation - adding complexity to the project.

Solution

Salnor Roofing turned to us to carry out a windload calculation and tube/fastener selection for the tapered insulation scheme, which gave them a detailed breakdown of the fasteners and tube washers required to securely fix the roof.

We supplied SF-T tube washers combined with SF-RS-5.8 fasteners, in different lengths to match the levels of insulation on the roof - for both the insulation and membrane fix as part of the application.

Our SureFast fasteners and tube washers are suitable for a range of substrates including metal, timber and concrete decks - and have been specifically designed to overcome the cold-bridging effect of mechanical fasteners.
