Office Complex for the Sage Group - (February 2003)
Location: North East
With 2,270 tonnes of complex structural steelwork to erect, it was always expected that the SAGE project would be another landmark for Billington Structures Limited. The huge framework is clearly visible from the A1 just to the North of Newcastle at the Gosforth Junction. Billington Structures supplied the structural steelwork, decking and precast stairs to complete the structural element. The sloping facades created an unusual profile to the buildings which create a striking landmark on the new Great North Business Park.
