We offer a comprehensive set of temporary works design in accordance with BS 5975-2019 which can be tailored to suit, such as: • Temporary support of floors and walls for installation of new steelwork • Façade retention • Shoring design and sequencing for basement construction • Temporary ground support • Working platform design for cranes and piling rigs • Tower crane base design • Temporary propping of existing or new floors to support high construction loads • Temporary works checking role for Category 2 and 3 designs • Liaison with proprietary temporary works specialists and checking • Imaginative engineering to overcome problems with access and programme • Working with contractors and sub-contractors to get agreement on best way to solve site problems services
Ingleton Wood were commissioned by Hutton Construction to provide temporary works engineering Services for a prestigious scheme at Sidney Sussex College in Cambridge.The project involved the construction of new basement kitchen and internal modifications to the Master’s Lodge. The new basement was located next to the Master’s Lodge Building and included a new underground tunnel linking them together. Our involvement in the temporary works on the project included; • Shoring design and sequencing for two storey deep basement sump pit • Underpinning design to the existing heating trench adjacent to the new basement.This was to avoid the need for high level propping which would have impeded access and slowed up the construction process • Existing basement wall checks to allow for new openings to be cut without the need for temporary underpinning design and temporary propping to the existing Master’s Lodge external buttresses to form new tunnel link case study - Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge
about us
Structural engineering lies at the heart of all good building projects and it is our engineering skill that helps to deliver successful schemes.As a result, Ingleton Wood’s Engineers are an integral part of the project delivery team. We are experienced in all the main sectors: retail, residential, industrial, health, commercial, scientific research, education; as well as historic buildings and conservation projects. Engineering excellence is not just about design, it is also about having a good understanding of the construction process and modern procurement methods.When coupled with a sound knowledge of how buildings fit together real value can be added to any scheme. Whether it is traditional methods, pre-assembled elements, modular design or sustainable forms of construction; often there is a need for our team of engineers to consider temporary works as part of the overall solution.
