Due to the accessible terraces and significant foot traffic on the roof of Aberdeen’s Marischal Square, the Bauder hot melt structural system was a natural choice for this redevelopment project.

In 2011 Muse Developments undertook a £107m redevelopment of the site creating space for two new office buildings, seven restaurants and café bars, a 126-room hotel, a modern civic space and a new public space area in between the new buildings.

One of the key challenges for the project was the fact that Muse Developments and Morgan Sindall were looking for a single source waterproofing. Bauder proved to be the perfect fit, covering and delivering all elements of the waterproofing systems.

Bauder’s hot melt structural system was combined with hard and soft landscaping to provide the different aspects of the various terraces, stairways, podium decks and rooftops.

Approved contractor Briggs Amasco carried out the works on the 5,400m² of the separate roof areas, whilst expert Bauder site technicians carried out a total of 26 site visits over the duration of the project to ensure the quality of the installations. Following a final inspection, Bauder was able to issue a 20-year product and workmanship guarantee on the project.
