In this project we were not only responsible for the site management, but also responsible for the procurement of the development.
The project consisted of the demolition of a redundant Royal Mail sorting office and the construction of ten houses, two shops, eight flats and an undercroft car park in the centre of Christchurch.
After the demolition, some under pinning was required to the adjacent buildings.
The development was all traditional build and completely face brick.
Within the confines of the site, we had to move an electricity sub station to a new location.
The site consisted of conventional concrete foundations, reinforced concrete undercroft car park, brick/block super structure and three extenuation tanks for surface water storage and distribution.
There was also a block paved courtyard, with the houses situated around the perimeter.
