SIPs Roof at Lowfield Primary School, Sheffield
When Sheffield City Council were designing contemporary new school buildings for Lowfield Primary School in Sheffield SIPs were the obvious answer for the roof. A significant time saving was made buy using SIPs because of the insulation already being inside the panel - the roofing contractor followed on immediately after we had installed each roof and other trades were able to work inside doing the first fix.
