Case Studies
In 2015 Graham Steel were instructed to undertake a full design, supply and install a full structural steel including hollow rib flooring for 25 units within a retained façade at Canterbury House, Queens Park.
The scheme was extremely complicated as it also required all elements of temporary works (to retain the façade) to be coordinated with the installation of the new scheme.
In total the scheme consisted of over 350 tonnes of structural steel and 24000m2 of hollow rib flooring.
The design and installation had zero tolerance as the staircase had to appear to be ‘floating’. Over the four floors we were allowed 2mm of tolerance. All aspects of design and installation were laser cuts and the stringers were created to be seamless at all junctions.
The final product delivered the desired ‘wow’ factor and the client was delighted with the entire process.
The scheme consisted initially of over 90 tonnes of temporary steel work to brace the entire building in line with Party Wall Requirements.
Following this process, the entire permanent scheme had to be ‘threaded’ around the temporary scheme over the existing floors to allow two new floors to be installed at Roof Level.
The final piece of the jigsaw was the systematic removal of the temporary beams which had to take place during the fit-out process.
The scheme was delivered on programme.
