Local characteristics

What Makes Reading Different.

Reading’s corporate estate includes some of the largest Thames Valley tech campuses, many with architecturally ambitious public realm and entrance floors. Specification without slip testing in these schemes has historically produced retrofit requirements — especially for high-gloss concrete and stone.

Recent work

A Recent Reading Project.

We tested a Reading tech HQ entrance plaza after slip incidents during wet weather. The decorative sandstone had wet PTV 24 — below compliance threshold. A conversation with the facilities team informed a planned surface-treatment programme coordinated with a wider public-realm refurbishment.
