The Challenge

The 15,000 capacity Lakeside Stadium complex is a £28 million project initiated by Doncaster City Council and is due for completion in December 2006. After that, the sports stadium will be home to Doncaster Rovers FC, Doncaster Belles FC and the newly renamed Doncaster Lakers RLFC.

The entire stadium project needed to comply with Part L2 of the latest building regulations regarding thermal and acoustic insulation and fire retardation. As well as sealing in crowd noise and providing fire protection for large areas of the terraces, spectators also needed to be protected from isolated cold spots occurring at the venue.

The stadium's architects, Carillion needed impartial insulation advice, as well as a broad range of options regarding suitable products.

We were contacted by Carrillion near the late stages of the stadiums development to provide a solution to elimiate cold bridging and eliminate condensation forming on the steel work around the stadium, in particular above office space and the like. They wanted a system which could be sprayed in place onto the steel work itself and still give an excellent fire safety rating.


The Websters Solution

Websters Insulation's on-site advisor was able to draw up a complete product specification for the stadium as a whole. To tackle both the cold spot problem and conform to the stringent fire regulations, Websters Insulation supplied and applied the Pirthane Class O fire rated insulation system, comprised of Pirthane HR foam and an Intumescant coating was then applied onto the foam.
