Project
Project Type
The scheme consists of an 11-story residential tower with ground-level commercial space. The building features a unique, four-tiered staggered footprint that required a highly bespoke access strategy.
Defined by an extremely restricted site footprint with zero ground-level storage, necessitating innovative engineering:
Cantilevered Systems: To maintain site boundaries and clear hoarding lines, the scaffold was engineered to cantilever over the public realm where ground-based standards were not possible.
Complex Geometry: The design accommodated splayed building ends and multiple mass beam sections, including bridging over balconies across several floors.
Aesthetic & Safety: The entire structure was wrapped in KAS’s signature green and blue alternating netting, providing a striking professional finish while ensuring debris containment.
With no space for material stockpiling, KAS implemented a "Just-In-Time" logistics model:
Sequenced Deliveries: Daily deliveries were timed to align precisely with the day’s scheduled activity.
Crane Integration: Materials were craned directly to alternate floor levels from delivery vehicles, utilizing the tower crane to bypass the lack of ground space.
Advanced Installation: Cantilevered systems were installed ahead of the main build to enable safe, progressive "climbing" of the structure.
Workforce & Management
To ensure programme certainty over the 22-month duration, KAS maintained a consistent on-site presence of 6–8 specialist operatives. Our team structure was built on high-level accreditation:
Management: TWC (Temporary Works Coordinator) trained.
Supervision: SSSTS-trained on-site leads.
Technical Staff: KAS-trained slingers and fully qualified Part 1 & Part 2 operatives.
Completed in February 2025, the project stands as a landmark in the KAS portfolio. It serves as a definitive case study in managing large-scale new-builds, complex mass-beam solutions, and the high-pressure logistics of restricted urban sites.
