1. Assessment for Module EG7034

As in the real world, you will be dealing with ambiguous and uncertain situations and
information. You will need to manage, mitigate and justify any assumptions according to
your best professional understanding. You must deliver to your client a professional report
that addresses their concerns and puts forward your suggested outline design/action plan
with ways to implement that plan. It is important to remember that you are acting as a
professional consultant and must put forward what you believe to be the most appropriate
solution remembering you have a professional duty to society which may be contrary to
your client’s needs.

This assignment will expect you to work closely in your student teams to collaborate and
produce the desired module outcomes. It will also involve you undertaking detailed
individual research and exposition. There are three parts to the assessment of this module,
and they are included in this one assignment in three main parts:

1. Collaborative/ Group Feasibility Presentation – 30%


2. Group Case Study, with individual student section – 60% weighting (50%
individual section /10% Group collaboration)
3. Individual Mental Wealth Reflective Log. – 10% weighting

The technical issues will be covered in parts (1) and (2), and your professional ability to
manage yourself and the group work will be demonstrated in the Reflective Log (3).

If you undergo difficulties in your group or individual work these will need to be explained
and justified in your Reflective Log in the correct format, as you will be assessed on how
well you have coped with managing change during this work – See ‘Part C: Reflective Log
and Summary Report’ for details below.

2.2 Management and Monitoring Progress


The assignment will consist of five team members, in which you will be responsible for one
task each, but ultimately the whole project must be joined up. Preparing students to engage
with a variety of people in the workplace. It is not always possible to work with close friends
in the industry, but the ability to work as a team and meet deadlines on time, this is
paramount. It is advisable for the group to meet weekly to plan work and report on
progress. Keep a log of all the challenges that you face as both a group and an individual,
and reflect upon this in your Reflective Log.
All your collaborative group work needs to be uploaded and documented using MicroSoft ©
‘Teams’ platform Private Channels. Details of how to access this will be provided in your
tutorials.

3. Project Brief - The Millennium Mills Redevelopment
Cities across the world are already feeling the effects of the climate crisis and need to
ensure that they are resilient to a future which could result in a variety of changeable
weather, such as more powerful rainfall events, higher temperatures and sea level rise.
This means that all new developments need to be designed to be resilient in an uncertain
world in 2050 to ensure that the people living, working and visiting there are safe, healthy,
comfortable and productive. Silvertown Quays in London’s Royal Docks is a waterside site
which will be developed over the next 10-15 years and needs to be designed to be 2050-
ready.
The client has already received several proposals regarding the refurbishment of the Mills
but remains unsatisfied with these proposals. Details of the context and background to the
Millennium Mills can be found in Appendix A.

Your team is an engineering consultancy company and has been commissioned by the
lead developer Lendlease to carry out a feasibility study and outline design for the
redevelopment of the Millennium Mills located on the southern side of the Royal Victoria
Dock and associated infrastructure. You will be considering plot 4 for the construction of a
new building to facilitate the client’s requirements below.
Basic details, and site plans are provided on the Moodle site for EG7034 – with further
documentary details and materials accessed online from the Newham London Borough
Planning Portal. Access details of which are in Appendix B.

Project requirements
Lendlease is looking to you for answers as to how to achieve from the project the most
appropriate:
• Sustainable approach to design that will provide long term benefit to the local and
wider area of East London.
• An integrated infrastructure strategy and improved access and transport links for
the local people and businesses.
• A strong commercial strategy & evidence that the development with be financially
viable and meet its legal requirements.
• Demonstrate that they meet the needs of local and regional stakeholders and
environmental planning obligations
• A clear procurement strategy and safe construction programme

4
• A high-quality development that showcases innovation and also provides value for
money for the client and stakeholders alike.

This is broken down in more detail into five (I - V) sections in Part B of this assignment.

Part A - Collaborative Group Feasibility Presentation (30%)

3.1 Collaborative Group Feasibility Presentation – Due Week 7

During weeks 3—5 you will undertake some practice presentations during your tutorial
sessions on linked topics. The Group Feasibility Presentation to be graded (in Week 7)
must cover the following areas:

An outline feasibility study:


• To compare the three options listed below for plot 4 and reach a conclusion for the
best use of the land.
o Commercial premises
o Leisure or cultural facilities
o Residential development.

Each proposed scheme must be supported by: -


o An artist impression of the building
o Floor plans
o Elevations

• Within your presentation, you must also address the project requirements listed
within the Project Brief. Additionally, identify key design interventions for the site
to ensure that Silvertown is resilient in the future to potential urban flood events,
river flood events and sea level rise. Higher intensity rainfall events, elongated
summer temperatures and increasing urban heat island effect.

You can find some information about this project on the Newham Planning Portal, access
information is given in Appendix B. Please ensure that this information is researched fully
but please DO NOT plagiarise this information.

The client has now considered your feasibility presentation and wishes to go ahead with
the Millennium Mills Redevelopment as outlined in the attached drawings provided in the
Appendix. Using this as a basis, your group needs to provide a brief detailed report as
outlined below.
The group leader will need to allocate work roles and manage and monitor progress to
cover the five sections as indicated below. It is expected that each section will be supported
with charts, data, and sketches where required.

Section I – Design Issues (Student 1)

1. Devise a programme in the form of a Gantt chart following the RIBA plan of works for the
consultation and design of the project only showing clearly all-time constraints prior to
construction.
2. Analyse and provide financial data supporting and justifying cost implications at the design
stage only for the project.
3. Specify & discuss how Building Information Modelling (BIM) can be applied to this project.

Section II – Environmental & Stakeholder Management (Student 2)

1. An overview of the environmental issues affecting the construction & operation of the
project.
2. A detailed report supporting the process in which public concerns will be addressed.
3. Evaluate how Low Carbon Planning helps to integrate energy efficiency and renewable
energy sources cost effectively into the new development. (e.g. identify the measures used
to minimising construction waste, embodied energy and carbon emissions, in low carbon
energy design and planning)

Section III – Construction Planning (Student 3)

1. The choice of construction methods and logistics for the redevelopment to reduce carbon
emissions and reduce pollution.

7
2. Discuss Health and Safety obligations and provide detailed method statements supported
with pictorials for the construction of the major elements of the works; these must be
project specific.
3. An outline programme (Gantt chart user friendly) for the works for the key elements
(manually or software based) identifying critical activities & resource smoothing
opportunities.

Section IV – Economic & legal Issues (Student 4)

1. Present an economic evaluation of the financing of the infrastructure and the likely costs.
2. Discuss the geotechnical issues that need to be addressed within this scheme which will
affect the design and cost.
3. Advise the client on the following: -
a. The different methods for “Dispute Resolution” if disputes arise?
b. The role of a professional in the built environment (e.g. engineer, architect, project
manager etc.) as an expert witness?

Section V - Procurement Methods & Supply Chain Matters (Student 5)

1. Select & justify the best procurement method for this project in terms of the contractual
obligations. Explore the implementation of the innovative collaborative procurement
approach to de-risk the construction.
2. Analyse the structure of the UK economy in terms of procurement methods & supply
chain matters and demonstrate a critical awareness of the economic role played by the
civil engineering construction industry.
3. Describe how the Quality Assurance System ensures the best practice in managing the
construction of the development. Propose practical measures that can be utilised by
contractors to ensure that the client achieves a project that is ‘fit for purpose’ and best

Appendix A - Background Context of the Millennium Mills Redevelopment Project

Millennium Mills is a derelict industrial building in the Silvertown area of London's docklands.
Once described as the Battersea Power Station of the Royal Docks, it is the centre piece of a
substantial £3.5 billion redevelopment project by The Silvertown Partnership. Once complete, the
area will include a new commercial hub, new homes, leisure and culture facilities, parks and
green spaces and 1km of new water frontage.

The Greater London Authority appointed The Silvertown Partnership in 2012 as the preferred
development partner, consisting of Chelsfield Properties Ltd, First Base Ltd and Macquarie
Capital.

Plate 1 – Millennium Mills in its heyday as a thriving flour mill and distribution centre

History & Closure


Due to its rail and water links, the Royal Victoria Dock became a key transport hub for industrial
Britain in the first half of the 20th century. The mills had transformed the area into London’s
largest centre for flour milling. The original Millennium Mills building was designed and built in
1905 by William Vernon & Sons. Consisting of two plants, the ‘palatial’ mills, as William Vernon
described them, were capable of producing 100 sacks of flour an hour.

The mills were badly damaged in 1917 by a major explosion at Brunner Mond’s munitions factory
that was manufacturing explosives for use in the First World War. The explosion was so powerful
that it blew out the windows of the Ritz in West London and could be heard as far away as
Norfolk.

15
In 1933, Millennium Mills was rebuilt as a 10-storey art deco concrete building. The docklands
came under heavy attack during the Blitz of the Second World War, with considerable damage
sustained by both Millennium Mills and the Rank’s neighbouring Premier Mills building. After the
war, the ports underwent large-scale reconstruction, with the new building being operational by
September 1953. At its height in the 1950s, Silvertown employed over 100,000 workers.

In the early 1980s, along with most others in the Royal Docks, the mill was closed, a symbol of
the gradual decline of Britain’s industrial strength. Since then, the building has remained derelict.

In the 1990s, the London Docklands Development Corporation (LDDC) demolished the Rank
Mills, as well as the B and C silos of Millennium Mills, leaving D silo which was awarded Grade
II-listed status. For a time, the LDDC planned to convert the building into a public aquarium but
was unable to find funding for the project.

Redevelopment
After a protracted and failed redevelopment proposal in the 2000s, Newham Council awarded
planning permission to The Silvertown Partnership in 2015.

Plate 2: One of the many schemes to bring life back to the area in an Artist impression of the proposed site.

The refurbishment of the Millennium Mills will undoubtedly have a big impact on the area
transforming the present derelict landscape. It also proves a serious technical engineering and
logistical challenges with several hurdles to jump before work can start. It is important to
understand the physical, social, environmental and economic factors while ensuring a safe
environment for all those involved.

16
The physical impact of the project including the upturn in the local economy will boost the district’s
needs. Proposed commercial and residual development will dramatically alter the landscape of
Silvertown, as we know it. Improving transportation connections from the A13 and A406 must also
be seen to support this project, cutting a sway through newly developed areas must be carried out
sooner rather than later before areas are over developed.

There are a host of engineering elements to consider such as, but not exclusively, works to all the
necessary utilities, earthworks, remediation and groundwater control. The social impact needs to
be thoroughly thought through as the introduction of a new development may be of detriment to
the nearby community and industry if no strategy for integration is put forward. What will this impact
be and will additional infrastructure in the form of hospitals, schools, transportation and public
services need to be provided to cope with any additional demands? In order to make a project like
this a success it is critical to thoroughly research, evaluate and act to mediate between any possible
contentious issues surrounding its development and safeguard the interests of those affected. How
can this be positive for everyone?

Even though the development is backed by the Greater London Authority


and legislation has been adopted to safeguard and incentivise development, the environmental
impact will quite rightly be scrutinized by the local authorities and the environment agency as
sustainable development is crucially important from waste management to protecting wildlife and
ground contamination to name a few.

The investment in an area is generally welcomed as it is seen as a boost that creates jobs, provides
a new market for local businesses and can gentrify otherwise neglected sites. The most successful
developments tend to be integrated into the context in which they are proposed. How can this
investment benefit the area so the micro economy also benefits from the wealth generated?

Technically complex projects such as this require great skill and attention to mitigate accidents and
keep people safe both during and after construction. This should be done by evaluating risk and
incorporating safety measures to design out these risks where possible, during both construction
and for future use of this transportation scheme.
