Q Range Stair Nosing Case Study

Sector: Education
Main Contractor: McLaren
Flooring Contractor: Easifloor
End User:  CRMStudents
Location: Cambridge

 
 
Issue

Brunswick is a superb new scheme of 251 bedrooms, a mixture of studios and cluster rooms, offering outstanding student accommodation in the heart of Cambridge.  The customer required stair nosings for 7 staircases, 296 steps in total that were durable enough for high traffic. While there was also the design restraint of the staircases being cast metal and therefore no mechanical fixings could be used.  


 
Solution

Easifloor requested a site visit from an ASM who was able to interpret the specifications and propose the use of the Q-Range as it fully met the architects, builders and contractors needs.

Using the unique QSMS measuring system all 296 steps were individually measured, cut and delivered separately labelled.

The Q range has helped to create safe and stylish staircases for the modern building. QRHF1 was selected in Polar Grey to provide a single solid band of colour that visibly contrasted with the dark grey floor covering defining the step edge, this is in line with the Equality Act.
