Façade retention of the Tenters Pub formed part of the overall €37M Blackpitts Hotel Project. DOB&A provided stuctural engineering services DOBA provided structural engineering services with respect to the design of the temporary works required to install 2 large temporary vertical cantilever trusses constructed off deep pad foundations to laterally support the existing masonry facade of the Tenters Pub building. The temporary works were fully co-ordinated with the Permanent Works which allowed access for a large piling rig to install permanent driven pre-cast piles and an 8 storey RC framed building be constructed behind and above the temporarily retained facade without interference from the temporary frame.
