Westgate Lawns BridgnorthThe ProjectThe client's brief was to design, manufacture and install a car park for a block of nine apartments close to the town centre of Bridgnorth. |
External WallsThe external panels for this congested town centre site were fixed in two working days, restricted for traffic management reasons, using a 100tonne mobile crane. To download a Case Study of this project click the link below. |

Internal WallsThe internal walls and lift shaft walls were fixed to support the steel beams before the hollowcore units for the ground floor were fitted. |

ConnectionsSteel reinforcing bars are threaded though loops in the panels to connect them together before a waterproof expanding grout is poured into the recess. Steel Beams and Floor UnitsSteel beams were fixed into pre-formed pockets in the walls. These support the floor units and the external walls as the basement is larger than the ground floor footprint. |

ProgrammeMore than 400 square metres of parking and storage space was created in 10 working days.  Some of the hollowcores were broken out to accommodate ties from the lower walls to the floors to comply with progressive collapse codes. |
