Bird's Nest youth shelter
The Bird's Nest youth shelter is made from UK-grown FSC Douglas fir. It has a 150 x 150mm section frame slotted into steel box section lower legs on a steel base frame. Seats and backs, made from the same timber, can have extra steel edge detail to prevent them from being cut through. Seat backs are located in a metal channel to keep them in
The Bird's Nest youth shelter is made from UK-grown FSC Douglas fir. It has a 150 x 150mm section frame slotted into steel box section lower legs on a steel base frame.
Seats and backs, made from the same timber, can have extra steel edge detail to prevent them from being cut through. Seat backs are located in a metal channel to keep them in place.
The shelter can have four wildflower or sedum green roof panels, or be installed without a roof.
Installation
Groundworks by others - would require concrete triangular base slightly larger than the steel frame. Brought flat pack on a lorry with crane, so access to within 10m required, or use of a telehandler on site.
