Modular Plantrooms (MPR) has recently worked with a leading construction contractor to support the expansion of the theatre building at Barnsley Hospital. The project included the construction of a theatre extension plus the design and installation of a rooftop plant room to house essential mechanical services.

MPR engineered a bespoke beam and column structure to form the primary framework of the new building extension. This structure was designed to safely and efficiently support the load of the rooftop plant room.

For the plant room, MPR developed a portal frame structure featuring open mesh flooring and external cladding, balancing durability with accessibility for maintenance. The plant room was prefabricated off-site in modular components and delivered in "piece small" format for efficient assembly on-site.
