Urban living remains very attractive to many people not least students wishing to be close to places of education and knowledge. To accommodate these growing needs developers are seeking to expand the existing building capacity by building up. 

LOCATION

CLIENT

Urbanest / APT

Constructing on top of existing buildings increases the demand for façade design and assessment to accommodate new with existing. Buildings need to be assessed to prepare the façade design criteria and technical performance specification.

 

To increase the buildings energy efficiency, a thermal bridge assessment at roof extension interfaces was developed together with a façade access and maintenance strategy report.

 

During the build phase Henriksen Studio issuing risk assessments to ensure the build is on track and compliant with building regulation, Building Act Gateway 2.
