Abstract
A new active analysis laboratory building at Dounreay is breaking new ground in the nuclear and construction sectors, being the first to be built using off-site construction. This article provides an overview of the scheme, how it is being delivered and how the specification differs from a typical modular building. The 1300 m2 scheme, which is now on site, is providing active analysis laboratories to be in use for up to 25 years until the Dounreay site is closed. The building is designed to accommodate specialised nuclear ventilation systems with heavier and more complex services compared to more commercial applications of modular construction. Because of its remote coastal location, the building will also have to withstand the rigours of a highly exposed marine environment.
