Leeds College of Building Announces First Female Principal & CEO
Leeds College of Building has announced Nikki Davis as the next Principal & CEO and the first woman to hold the post in the 60-year…
Builders must put up warning signs/barriers around construction areas, ensure students and faculty wear hard hats if they walk near the sites, implement dust control, check that alarm systems still work with construction noise, and have campus security regularly monitor sites. Teams should follow proper safety protocols.
Schools could schedule the loudest construction activities during vacations/breaks, erect sound barriers around very noisy areas, have contractors work second/third shifts to avoid prime class times, phase projects to avoid too many simultaneous constructions and communicate timelines and access changes.
Builders should consider energy-efficient HVAC systems, abundant natural light/windows, solar panels, green roofs, renewable building materials, smart water systems, optimised insulation, LEED certification standards, electric car charging stations, bike storage, and urban gardening spaces.
Using standardised/modular designs, limiting custom features, getting quotes from multiple vendors, using alternative building materials, phasing over time, securing government grants, partnering with tech sponsors, or having faculty oversee student workers can drive down costs.
