Temporary roof

The versatile UBIX temporary roof
system from Combisafe
International has provided
protection to a 300m2 archeological
dig site of two Roman ditches and a
team of archaeologists at St Barts in
London – England’s oldest hospital.

The system allows the archeologists
to work unaffected by the weather,
and enable vital construction work
to continue as soon as possible.

To cover the 20 x 13m trench,
Generation Hire and Sale supplied
two UBIX roofs measuring 12 x 12m
and 14 x 12m, which could be
moved using Combisafe’s innovative
RunWay track system.

With the use of the UBIX system,
the site was able to benefit from
quick and easy handling and simple
erection. Requiring no specialist
tools or lifting gear, it was easily
assembled by a small team. With
boltless fixings and loose
components eliminated, all parts
snap together for rapid process.
