After a competitive tender process, H.H. Smith were awarded the project to carry out alterations to the existing RTC Building at Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Training Centre to create new Ablutions, Classroom and Gym. The works comprised of the stripping out of some existing facilities and the construction of a mezzanine floor in a two-storey space, equipping the ground floor with additional toilet and shower facilities and the first floor with the BA Classroom, Gym and Kit Store. The contract also included some ancillary external works and associated drainage and services alterations.

The internal works required the erection of a new steel structure to support the mezzanine floor. The new accommodation was formed using lightweight studwork partitioning with new suspended ceilings, decorative floor finishes and sanitaryware installations. The installation was supported by M&E and public health services systems including water supply, ventilation, heating/cooling, power, lighting and waste water drainage.
