Riverside Primary School

Project Description

Riverside Primary School is currently under construction with the aim of being the first Passivhaus Primary School in Scotland. The new school will replace the existing North Muirton and Balhousie schools to provide primary, nursery and ASN education for almost 600 pupils.

Location: Perth
Client: –
Value: £ 16.5 Million
Project Dates: 2023

Construction Overview

A collaborative approach was vital when determining the most appropriate structural solution. Feasibility studies were undertaken, which covered a variety of construction materials, but due to economic and supply chain pressures a braced steel frame was progressed as more cost-effective compared to the CLT frame that was initially proposed. This provided an opportunity to find solutions for achieving Passivhaus with a more conventional structural solution.
