Mc Bride Project

Featured Project
full structural engineering design

Mc Bride Project

Located next to Lake Rotoiti this project involved:

  • A 651 m2 addition
  • Full re-build of roof structure and internal alterations to the existing 220 m2 residence
  • 101 m2 of exterior carport & pergola structures
  • An architectural designed 60 m2 circular timber deck
  • Several timber retaining walls

The 651 m2 “addition” consisted of a 301 m2 masonry lower floor which provides a wine cellar, climbing wall and substantial vehicle storage. The standout aspect of this “basement” was the 3.8m stud height with the masonry walls retaining to this height in parts. The upper floor and throughout the rest of the project timber design was a recurring theme. This included the circular deck which involved the use of curved laminated beams and required a high level of detailing.

Involvement

BSK Consulting Engineers provided a full structural engineering design service for all aspects of this project, including construction monitoring and the provision of advice to the contractor during construction where required.

We worked closely with all parties throughout the project – client, architect, contractor, geotechnical engineer, and local authority. Starting with a site meeting between all parties at the concept stage. Excellent communication was maintained throughout the project which ensured a successful outcome.

Client Testimonial

Recently Keam Construction has been part of a large scale Residential build project in the Okere Falls area. During this time we had the pleasure of working alongside BSK consultants for both Structural Engineering and Geotechnical services. In terms of a residential build this was a highly technical build with some complex engineering components. However the plans prepared by BSK in particular Tony Kennedy were both clear, concise and easy to follow. As some of the project was a renovation it required further engineering solutions as the job progressed. Tony and his team were easy to communicate with and they were able to come up with simple, cost effective and practical solutions for any issues that came along. They were also open to input from a builders perspective in terms of providing ease of construction solutions. I would highly recommend BSK consultants for your professional engineering requirements.
