Riverine Centre, London

This 6 hectare post-industrial wasteland in East London posed many challenges. The site is expected to be highly contaminated, having been occupied for over 100 years by chemical works factory, and is disconnected from its surroundings as a result of the surrounding infrastructure. Channel Sea River to the East, the tube line to the South and a raised sewer to the north east effectively isolate the triangular site. The master plan for a mixed-use scheme included the provision of 291 apartments, an enterprise centre, Islamic library, Crèche and a mosque for a congregation of approx. 9500.

Glint Consultants were appointed to provide Building Services (MEP) Design and Sustainability services. A detailed feasibility study was carried to efficiently ventilate the large prayer hall, as the openable area of glazing was restricted due to acoustic issues. A hybrid system top down ventilation was used, this included use of wind catcher’s from Monodraught and AHU’s in the basement of the building. Detail energy/comfort modelling was also carried to maximise the use of Natural ventilation, thereby reducing the risk of overheating. Energy strategy in compliance with London Plan 2011 was also submitted, wherein BREEAM Excellent was targeted.

45 Imperial Way, London

Glint consultants are appointed to provide Mechanical, Electrical and Sustainability services for the 40 bed hotel to the front and two banquet halls to the rear, situated in Croydon.

The project is aiming to achieving BREEAM Excellent, thereby adhering to some of the highest energy efficiency standards. Advanced thermal modelling is carried out to optimize the plant capacities and also minimize operational energy demand.
