Peak Architects were appointed by the loss adjusters to evaluate the options available to the Insurance Company for a 300,000sqft distribution warehouse that had been partly destroyed by fire.
We were instrumental in bringing together a team including structural; ground investigation and services engineers to review the existing condition of the building; thereafter Peak Architects worked with a cost consultant to produce a series of approaches to re-build the building. The agreed approach was to re-use the existing ground floor slab and pile clusters and caps and rebuild the warehouse using a lightweight steel portal frame and cladding.
