Boasting three boxing rings, a full range of
hitting equipment, mirrors and weights the
hall has proved popular with young boxers.
The Academy has become one of a handful
designated High Performance Boxing
Centres across the UK It will also act as a
pre-Games training base for a number of
Olympic boxing teams.
It is, in short, a significant addition to
Yorkshire’s sporting scene and a proud
example of the London 2012 legacy, yet it
quite easily might never have ever got off
the ground.
Just a year ago, the Academy was dividing
its time between four venues operated by
other organisations. It had a long waiting
list, limited funding and, with the Olympics
fast approaching, little chance to take part.
Constructed using an anodised aluminium
frame in-filled with steel-clad sandwich
panels, the hall was manufactured and
supplied by us and, although it could
theoretically be removed as easily as it has
been erected, it is designed to last for many
years. It is manufactured to comply with
British and EEC safety standards for
structural integrity, fire and safety codes, as
well as British Standards for wind and snow
loading.
We laid the concrete base, installed a
semi-translucent roof, which allows in
daylight to save lighting costs, and fitted a
host of other amenities, including a
temperature control system. The whole cost
of the project was £300,000 which,
according to figures from Sport England,
shows a significant saving. The average cost
of a similar-sized sports hall, based on
typical schemes funded last year, would be
around the £1m mark – more than three
times as expensive.

temporary building structures.
One thing to consider is the rental versus purchase option with these structures. If you are looking to save on cost of rent, operations, and other costs, you might want to use one of these, and purchase, rather than seek out an office space or building for rent on a monthly basis. If, on the other hand, you are running a business that is having work done to the building, or if your school is out of commission for a few months having work done to it, then the rental option is the better choice, and it is the best way to continue to be able to open your doors on a daily basis, for a low priced option.
You have to consider the size needs and the facilities. If you need these buildings for schools, you have to consider how big they are, how many students each can hold, and how they are set up for classroom learning. You also have to consider whether they need air conditioning, heating, places to sit, bathrooms, and other features and necessities in the temporary building structures, that you are going to be renting. Considering all of the essentials, as well as the size needs, are all important factors to keep in mind when trying to find the ideal structures for permanent or for temporary use. Regardless of the use, from a school, to an office building or a doctor office, you have to keep in mind the size restrictions, the necessities on site, and what it is going to cost on a monthly basis, to rent out these units, while some kind of work is being done on the permanent structure that you usually occupy.
Everything has to be considered before you buy or rent these temporary buildings. You also have to keep in mind finding a reliable supplier of these buildings, to ensure they are properly made, and to know you are going to get the lowest prices for the rental, or for the purchase, if you choose to buy the buildings that you are going to put to use. With many suppliers, and many places to turn to, you can find a great deal on the temporary building structures you choose to rent or buy, and you can find the right sized buildings, for the duration that you need to rent them out for.

We recently supplied the 7m-long refurbished retractable tunnel, which was situated at the entrance to the Olympic Basketball Arena, to Stafford Boat Club to enable its members to carry out vital maintenance on their boats without having to endure the wind and rain.
“It was just great timing that Spaciotempo had only just got its retractable tunnels back from the Olympics when we enquired. Not only does the tunnel suit our purposes perfectly, the fact that it was used at the Basketball Arena over the summer has become a real talking point.”
