How we did it
The project was executed using reinforced concrete retaining walls, cavity blockwork, and a reinforced concrete raft slab. A posi-joist roof supported by steel beams provided structural integrity. Careful planning ensured the building integrated smoothly with the existing embankment, maintaining high standards of quality and efficiency throughout construction.

The Challenge
A key challenge was integrating the new garage with the existing embankment while ensuring structural stability. This required careful planning and precise engineering to manage the slope and support the building’s weight safely.
