Kings Cross S3

Kings Cross

The Brief

One of the final buildings within the King’s Cross development, the S3 project is an 11-storey mixed use building. Under it’s new name, ‘One Keskidee Square’ will offer approximately 26,000m2 of Grade A office space.

With our long-standing relationship with BAM Construction, as well as the Kings Cross S1 building. We were chosen to deliver the structural package for the 11 storey Keskidee Square development.

Our Approach

The location of the building sits above two Thameslink rail tunnels so careful consideration had to go into the foundational structure and weight of the frame.
Our design team had to ensure the connections were both structurally sound and aesthetically appealing as many of these would be visible in the final condition.
We had to incorporate numerous design changes to adjust to the clients requirements, including new staircase openings.
We also incorporated temporary supports allowing us to erect steelwork out of the conventional order.
We designed and fabricated the tower crane grillage to EXC3 in accordance with BS EN 1090:2.

The Outcomes

The building is targeting an “Excellent” rating, ensuring a high level of sustainability.

“The development was originally designed as concrete structures but were changed to steel frames due to cost and building weight”.
