Our work in this sector

Debenhams

GSE are currently engaged as structural & civil engineering consultants for the remodelling of the former Debenhams Store in Winchester High Street.

This unique building comprised 3 structures which had been linked to form one department store. On the right, a 1950’s steel framed building, on the left, a 1990s steel framed building, and in between the two a 4 storey Georgian building. The remodelling comprised of splitting the single department store into smaller multi occupancy units.

Our work consisted of allowing more space for each unit by infilling the escalator void, and levelling the ground floor in one building, and making sure the interior and exterior are structurally suitable to allow the split.

All of this was done to maximise the lettable retail space and work is currently on site with a planned completion date of later this year.

Coya Restaurant

The lower ground floor of this substantial building in Piccadilly was drastically altered to accommodate the change of use to a restaurant and bar. The structural design was made all the more important by the constant occupation of the upper floors by offices that could not be disturbed.

The construction programme on this project was very tight so design alterations to the permanent works had to be carried out quickly and efficiently. The temporary works design that GSE undertook on behalf of the contractor needed to be robust to pass the careful scrutiny of the landlord’s engineer whilst still being practical to install and work around.

Oasis

GSE was selected to undertake a pivotal role in the design and implementation of the steel supporting structure for the captivating glazed storefront at the Oasis Store, located within the bustling Westfield White City shopping center. Our team of experienced structural engineers embraced the opportunity to showcase their expertise in crafting a robust and aesthetically pleasing support system that would not only enhance the store’s visual appeal but also ensure its structural integrity and safety.

Through careful analysis and precise engineering, we devised an innovative steel framework that seamlessly integrated with the store’s architectural design, providing the necessary strength and stability to support the large glass panels and showcase the merchandise within.
