RAAC Update

In common with many buildings of a similar age, RAAC (Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete) is present in a small and isolated area of Cardiff and Vale College’s Barry Campus.

The College has taken the proactive step of temporarily closing a very small number of rooms in Barry Campus to all staff and learners as a precautionary measure. A review undertaken by a structural engineer has found no indication of failure and no immediate action is required. To further ensure the Health and Safety of all CAVC staff and learners, further precautionary measures are being put in place for teaching and learning to continue safely in these rooms.
