Project Description

Charles Street, Sheffield

Main Contractor: Balfour Beatty
Architect: Bond Bryan
Scope: Structurally Bolted Assemblies

This scheme utilised some of the largest glass fins in Europe at over 8m in length, supporting a bespoke designed Saint Gobain LiteWall system.

Designed to link 2nr buildings together via an architecturally striking glazed bridge, and featuring some difficult rakes and a large glazed roof crank two-thirds of the way up one of the screens this project was remarkably challenging in terms of both design and installation.

A tower crane was utilised due to the extremely narrow and tight confines created by the building layout.
