Barrett Mahony provided civil and structural consultancy services for the landmark development at One Olympic Way, near Wembley Stadium.
The development comprised an existing office building that was refurbished and extended to provide 346 units residential accommodation and ground floor commercial space. Vertical extensions of three, five, and seven storeys were provided to the existing structure. This is included the construction of seven new storeys on top of seven existing storeys. A bespoke foundation strengthening, structural strengthening, and bracing strategy was developed to enable the existing structure to support the additional loadings. The development is constructed over an existing culverted watercourse (Wealdstone Brook), which required assessment of the existing transfer structures and culvert. An additional 15 storey reinforced concrete frame structure was constructed adjacent to the existing building. A new landscaped podium structure was constructed within an existing courtyard to provide amenity space.
