7 Bedford Row

This project required removing the supporting arch below the existing concrete and granite staircase. Support was provided throughout with a temporary works system design by our structural engineers. Once the existing works were removed an in-situ concrete box was formed within the space. This created a housing for the lift mechanism along with support for the staircase. In-situ concrete sections were formed which created a sectional and moveable staircase. When the lift mechanism had been installed any further concrete works were completed, allowing the removal of the temporary support and completion of mosaic finishes.
