Pheobe's Garden Centre, Catford

​

HL were appointed as the structural engineers for this apartment development on the site of the former Phoebes Garden Centre in Catford. The development includes construction of 25 affordable homes and 2 affordable rent properties.

 

The development comprises of five blocks which are constructed from load-bearing masonry with precast concrete floors and supported on a piled raft foundation. Further accommodation is provided within the steel framed roofs of each building.

 

The project was delivered to BIM level 3 with HL developing and sharing an Autodesk Revit Model with the Project Architect. This allowed us to quickly co-ordinate the design and resolve details including steps at enclosed terraces and the complex roof geometry.

 

The project benefits from a number of sustainability initiatives including solar PV panels to the pitched roofs and green flat roofs.
