The Challenge

A substantial part of the upgrade works related to the installation and upgrade of new M&E services, whilst a new opening had to be created in the historic fabric of the building.

The SOLID Approach

SOLID carried out in depth structural surveys of the building to minimise the impact of the proposed work on the integrity of the historic fabric.
