PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The Queens Road project is a new residential development in the centre of Nottingham located adjacent to the railway station. It comprises a 10-storey residential block with commercial units to the first floor. Structure is formed in a concrete frame with a steel frame penthouse apartment.

The project is built over some critical Severn Trent drainage infrastructure which required the entire centre block of the building to be suspended across a no-pile zone, engineering the structure to span over the CSO (combined sewer overflow) chamber to avoid loading a critical piece of sewer infrastructure.

We were involved in multiple value engineering workshops and exercises throughout the project.
