How our structural engineers tackled complex site constraints, wind/seismic forces, and strict deadlines.
Tight urban infill site with strict boundary constraints and demanding acoustic separation standards between apartment units.
Pre-engineered panelized wall cassettes with integrated acoustic dampening strips and open-web steel floor joists allowing concealed MEP duct runs without ceiling drop beams.
Detailed static modeling, load dissipation paths, and statutory regulatory validation.
Constructed on a restricted urban infill site in Kent, this 950 m² 3-storey residential building required rigorous acoustic isolation and passive fire protection. Our engineering team detailed factory-assembled 2D panelized wall units with integrated acoustic isolation resilient bars and deep open-web floor cassettes capable of concealing all electrical and plumbing services without dropped ceiling bulkheads.
Verified structural calculations matching national building regulations and Eurocode annexes.
Multi-storey light gauge steel framing with UK National Annex.
Party walls and floors tested to exceed 58 dB airborne and Ln,w < 52 dB impact sound.
REI 90 fire resistance rating on loadbearing party walls and floor cassettes.
Full compliance with NHBC Chapter 6.10 light steel framing criteria.
Seamless workflow from 3D parametric Tekla BIM to automated CNC pre-fabrication and job-site erection.
3D Tekla-Revit clash resolution between structural framing, MEP risers, and architectural facades.
Automated wall framing with factory-fitted acoustic sheathing and weather barrier.
Seaworthy high-cube containers delivered in scheduled phases matching floor erection stages.
3 storeys erected in 18 days with SerBuild quality supervisor verifying acoustic seals.
Comprehensive breakdown of delivered steel superstructure components, secondary framing, envelope, and dossier.
SerBuild's panelized steel system saved us 8 weeks on site compared to blockwork. The acoustic test results exceeded UK Building Regulations by a wide margin.
