Scenario (hypothetical)
The four-storey building indicated on the attached drawings is a proposed new building for the
External Relations Division of The University of Salford, to be built on the former site of the
Northern Car Park (currently under development).
The attached schematic layouts have been prepared by architects acting for the University. The
floor plans show how accommodation is to be broadly distributed, though in addition the
following should be noted:
Ground floor plan
0 One wing is an Office
0 The central area is a void over the swimming pool
0 The other wing provides internal car parking spaces as per the layout shown on the plans.
Basement
0 Designated as plant and storage areas, swimming pool and Car Park.
First and second
0 Designated as office use
0 The client requires flexibility of layout on these floors, i.e. to be able to partition off
individual offices if the need arises, or to be able to have an open plan layout.
0 Layouts may change over a period of time.
