Olympic Legacy reminder

03 September 2013

With attention turning to the Olympic Park once again this year for the Sainsburys Anniversary Games, the construction industry was reminded of the extraordinary feat achieved by the contractors involved in building the infrastructure for the London 2012 Olympic Games.

Fall protection specialist Eurosafe Solutions played a key part in the ‘exemplary health and safety record’ by providing a specialist fall protection system which allowed safe access for roofing contractors, Lakesmere, to install the iconic wave roof on the Olympic Aquatic Centre.

 

Lakesmere was presented with a major challenge when safe access was required for engineers to install the Kalzip aluminum cladding system to the striking wave-form roof, which was designed to resemble a swimmer breaking the water.  Fall protection specialist, Eurosafe Solutions, designed and implemented a fall protection system, using temporary Mansafe systems to allow construction work to be carried out safely on the curved eaves of the roof.
