Project Title:

Cliffs of Moher Coach Park Reception Building | Roadstone

Date:

2018

Location:

Co. Clare, Ireland

Client: 

The Cliffs of Moher Visitor Centre

Business Sectors: 

Civil Infrastructure

Services (Technical Disciplines):

Design and manufacture of architectural grade concrete.

Project Objectives/ Outcomes: 

The Cliffs of Moher visitor centre in Co. Clare developed a new Coach Park Reception Building in 2018.

The construction of the building required a number of concrete mix designs which were both functional and visually appealing.

Architectural grade concrete was specified throughout the interior and exterior of the building including floors, walls and ceilings. The designers for this project specified a fair faced concrete finish to negate the requirement for any painting, cladding or finishing materials to be applied to the surface.  A variety of finishes were required including polished concrete and exposed aggregate, according to the location within the building.

Our Role:

Roadstone designed and manufactured an architectural grade concrete suitable for use as a finished product, whilst also ensuring consistency of finish could be achieved.

In order to do so the proportions of all materials were carefully processed and mixed to ensure designed ratios were achieved

All constituent materials were closely monitored to guarantee consistency throughout the project resulting in a consistent concrete colour and finish.
