Building an £83m skyscraper with minimal working at height
The £83m development at Anthology Hale, which will feature 279 apartments and three retail units on the ground floor, is surrounded by other buildings, a busy road bridge and streets thronging with pedestrians, with London Underground assets running underneath.
The lack of space around this 33-storey mixed-use development, has meant a range of innovative solutions from engineering to technological and logistical had to be introduced.
This required a huge amount of planning that included looking into how we could eliminate working from height avoiding the use of scaffolding or mast climbers. We also saved costs in doing so.

The success of this job has been meticulous planning. Pretty much everything we’ve done on this job has been pre-planned and has worked.”
