Details

The scheme involved converting the existing victorian property and adding additional space with open plan layout. Structures Made Easy Ltd. was approached by client architect to design both sub and super structure of the proposed structure.

Ground floor benefited of open plan layout and extension. The foundations bridged over public sewer pipe and with RC lintels and concrete pads.

Opening under main original house was achieved by inserting ‘box frame’ steel structure and steel beams under main load bearing walls of the house and other steel posts concealed within walls for stability and flush finishes. Roof was constructed in usual timber construction.
