The C60 house is being built using
Stoneguard’s Protec system, which is transforming
the way new buildings are designed and constructed. Computer-designed,
precision manufactured lightweight galvanised steel components
are delivered to the site either as individual components
or complete frames. On-site they are assembled in an efficient,
accurate and safe procedure that involves no wet processes.
It is quick, cost-effective and environmentally friendly,
reducing reliance on highly skilled labour. Stoneguard is
also sponsoring and managing the project. |

‘The conflicting demands for huge
numbers of new homes and the need
to meet the world’s environmental
challenges for generations to come
must be reconciled and we believe
that Stoneguard C60 will be in the
forefront of this process. This building
is, quite simply, 44 years
ahead of its time.
‘Perhaps the most important participants
in this project are the students, who are
fully involved in every aspect of
construction and development. Their
first hand experience of the issues
will give them a wealth of knowledge,
to apply when they graduate and develop
as they work in the building industry
of the future.’
