Project  Description  

122  Leadenhall  was  one  of  the  most  prestigious  office  buildings  in  the  City  of  London,  50  storeys  tall  and  225m  in  height.  

Booth  King’s  appointment  was  to  the  steel  fabricator  William  Hares  Limited  with  a  brief  to  provide  structural  engineering  solutions  for  the  temporary  stability  during  erection.    

Key  Facts  

Working  closely  with  the  fabricators,  erectors,  the  main  contractor,  Bovis,  and  the  building’s  designers,  Arup,  we  provided  structural  engineering  services  which  included  the  design  of  temporary  steelwork  to  stabilise  and  support  the  primary  frame  and  mega-­‐structure  in  15  storey  increments  until  such  time  as  the  external  diagrid  has  been  pre-­‐stressed  and  may  be  relied  upon  to  take  lateral  loading.
