Brief Description

The North Mall and Royal Court at Gracechurch Shopping Centre were previously open courtyards and malls within an operational shopping centre. The works were to infill these areas to provide the development with four extra retail units at mall level and the provision of extended retail space at first and second floors. The structural steel frame was constructed from basement level off new piled foundations through the existing mall concourse slab. Typical of its location, the project required a 60m jib tower crane, night time deliveries of large materials, temporary lifting wells through to the existing basement for daytime movement of materials and waste and temporary works for the construction of an atrium over an existing open pedestrian thoroughfare.
