163 Ocean Boulevard - Large Mixed Use Development This mixed use development in Southampton consists predominantly of luxury apartments with commercial units on the ground floor. The proposed £13 million scheme currently takes the form of a U shape in plan, with a South facing courtyard, upper podium level and basement car park. The building steps up from 5 stories in the south to a 13 storey element located on the site of the existing Customs Building, with cascading south facing roof terraces, overlooking Queens Park and the sea. Piled foundations using continuous flight auger have been utilised with a contiguous piled retaining wall to the periphery of the basement area. The super-structure consists of an insitu concrete frame designed as a flat slab reinforced with high tensile steel bars. Stability is provided by the concrete walls to the lift and core areas. External walls consist of an inner construction of blockwork with a masonry outer skin. The masonry is tied to the concrete frame using brick ties. The attached folder provides a description, ESA-Prima Win extracts and photos of a 3 phase residential building for Barratt Southampton Ltd. This project is contained on numerous ESA-Prima Win files and no one file reflects the complete job. The 2 separated jpeg files show a digital image of the model and the best of the site photographs. The Customs 1-2.gif file provides a 3D image of phases 1 and 2, note phase 3 is built in the foreground. Files 01.BMP to 06.BMP reflect phase 3. ESA-Prima Win provided an accurate analysis of the whole structure, which produced quality information for the most economic piling requirements to be established. In addition, the design model provided frame moments and shears values from which the software, together with our experienced Chartered Engineers, were able establish the minimum reinforcement requirements.
