The brief
JMS Engineers provided structural and civil design for a 6-storey residential development on Farnborough Road, Hampshire.
Engineering response
The project utilised a fully reinforced concrete frame with SISMO building technology. A key challenge was constructing a basement covering the full footprint of the busy roundabout, which required using sheet piles and CFA piles for the boundary retaining walls. JMS overcame this by collaborating closely with the Local Authority to agree on the Approval in Principle (AIP) and construction management plan.
Delivery detail
The development offers 62 one- and two-bedroom apartments with basement parking, demonstrating JMS's ability to navigate complex engineering challenges effectively.
