Home 9 Project 9 Gatliff Road

Gatliff Road

An additional floor over an 18-metre reinforced-concrete building on Gatliff Road, Westminster, with architectural and mechanical design coordinated around headroom and fire safety.
Project overview

The Project

The Gatliff Road appointment concerned a new floor above an existing reinforced-concrete building approximately 18 metres high. AC Design Solution was instructed for the planning application and detailed architectural and mechanical drawings.

The brief required a 2.5-metre internal head height while resolving the fire-safety implications of the additional accommodation. The existing building, new floor and services therefore had to be considered together.
