The facade retention process takes careful consideration of every stage of the project, making sure that existing facade is safely retained and integrated into the new build. The process includes the design phase all the way to the delivery of the project.
First, a structural engineer asses the condition of the existing facade and provides a detailed report. The report will highlight any areas of concern and offer solutions for stabilisation and support. Then, temporary support structures are put in place to hold the facade securely while the rest of the building is demolished. After demolition, the new structure is built behind the retained facade. The facade is then carefully integrated into the new building, with the temporary supports removed once the new structure can support the facade. This may involve alterations to the existing facade to accommodate new windows, doors, or other features.
