Gleneagle

The project comprised undercroft lower ground floor carparking, street level retail units and residential areas over jnpgroup consulting engineers provided drainage, sub and superstructure design.

The main elevation required façade continuity with the existing structures with the adjoining building benefiting from timber shoring prior to the redevelopment. This required careful consideration for foundation design, a temporary construction stage propping system to enable removal of the timber props and integration of the propping forces in to the permanent structure as work progressed.

The main structure comprised a 2, 3,4 and 5 storey load bearing masonry structure built off of a RC flat transfer slab. Jointing of the building enabled progressive collapse design to be limited to the 5 storey section and the use of wide span pc planks typically. A system of steel beams was adopted in load bearing walls to provide alternative load paths to allow loss of masonry and compliance with section A3 of the building regulation.

Steel framing was adopted at first floor level, over the retail area to achieve practical retail space.

Foundations were piled.

Suspended drainage was adopted in the carpark, discharging to the public sewer via a private pump system.
