An £80 million office block at Kings Cross for BNP Paribas Real Estate. New development consisting of 14 storeys where 12 storeys are above ground and 2 storeys are below.
The building is formed with a cellular steel composite frame which is both lightweight and economic. The use of Fabsec cellular beams has allowed the project team to integrate all of the services within a constant and efficient structural zone created by the consistent depth of the beams. Based around a large 15m × 9m grid pattern, the steel frame starts at level one – which links to the upper level of the project’s shared podium – and extends upwards fairly uniformly to the rooftop. Below the steelwork there is an insitu basement zone which also incorporates a mezzanine level adjoining the street level along Pancras Road. The basement links into the lower level of the podium and is founded on more than 200 CFA piles.An
