Our Role
ByrneLooby provided specialist geotechnical design services for the deep basement for this project. The site is located in challenging terrain consisting of made ground overlying 5m of Belfast sleech. Our design to facilitate the 7m deep basement excavation and building foundations consisted of an embedded secant pile retaining wall, load bearing piles and temporary propping. Conscious of program requirements, we developed a scheme which required only one row of temporary support, greatly accelerating the construction time for the substructure.
