St Crispin’s House Norwich, UK

Barrett Mahony acted as Civil & Structural consultants from concept  through completion for the regeneration of St Crispin’s House, a  1970’s office building in Norwich. 

Sustainability and programme were at the heart of this purpose- built student accommodation (PBSA) scheme, with the retention  of the structural frame critical to the viability of the project. 

Detailed load balance assessments, combined with a series of  strengthening works, enabled a 3 storey vertical extension over the existing building, to achieve the requirements of the proposed  scheme. A five-storey new build extension forms part of the overall  development. The completed development comprises 684 student  beds.
