exposed timber joist structural engineering kew house conversion

Architect: Studio30

This project located in West Dulwich was the original show home when the street was developed in the late 1800s. The existing layout was modified internally with ground floor areas increasing with a large rear single storey extension and an addition first floor extension. 

 

Steel sizes were kept to a minimum any utilising masonry piers where possible whilst maintaining large new openings to the rear. The structure was designed to minimise the impact on to the existing party walls to reduce disruption to the neighbours and mitigate delays from the party wall process.
