Daniel Mihoc Construction: Integral Role in Building Naas Community College
In the world of construction and building projects, the success of a project often hinges on the seamless collaboration between various specialists, each contributing their unique skill set. A prime example of such a successful endeavor is the construction of Naas Community College in Kildare, an environmentally friendly and sustainable educational infrastructure. A key player in this project was Daniel Mihoc Construction (DMC), a company acclaimed for its network of proficient professionals and its unwavering commitment to delivering top-quality outcomes.
Project Overview
The project, with a budget of €19.00 million, was completed in February 2022. It entailed the development of a new 1,000-pupil college spanning an area of 10,400m2, including a Special Educational Needs (SEN) unit. A new General Purpose Hall and a Physical Education Gymnasium were also provided as part of the works. The project was executed and delivered to a very high standard of NZEB and A2 BER energy efficiency, taking full advantage of natural heating and ventilation opportunities, all proven using BIM Dynamic Simulation technology.
DMC's Role in the Project
DMC's role in this project was significant. Tasked with fireproofing, plastering, and providing general operatives, DMC also played a crucial role in the snagging process. This broad range of responsibilities showcases DMC's versatility and capability to manage various facets of a construction project.
Fireproofing and Plastering
DMC's fireproofing work was pivotal in ensuring the safety and longevity of the building. Fireproofing, which involves making the building's materials resistant to fire, is a crucial aspect of any construction project. Similarly, the plastering work carried out by DMC added to the overall finish of the building. Plastering, a process that involves the application of different types of plaster to interior walls, ceilings, and partition frameworks, creates a smooth finish ready for decoration.
General Operatives and Snagging Process
The provision of general operatives by DMC epitomizes the company's ability to supply a large workforce of skilled professionals. These operatives were involved in various aspects of the construction process, providing the manpower necessary to ensure the project's timely completion. Lastly, DMC's involvement in the snagging process underscores the company's commitment to quality and attention to detail.
Conclusion
The successful completion of the Naas Community College project, resulting in a quality-assured, environmentally-friendly, sustainable building with an A2 BER rating, is a testament to the collaborative efforts of all parties involved, including Daniel Mihoc Construction. This project serves as a shining example of DMC's capabilities and its commitment to delivering top-notch results in the construction industry.
