The existing building is part of the brief. Before choosing a construction sequence, the team needs to understand what is being retained, what will change and where the available information is incomplete.
We review the proposed work against the accessible conditions and available drawings. Investigations, measurements and specialist input can then be planned around the decisions they need to inform. Concealed conditions stay identified as uncertainties until they can be assessed.
- Retained, altered and replacement work
- Existing information and targeted investigations
- Protection of elements that will remain
