Project Description
Waterman Moylan Consulting Engineers for Clerys Quarter. Located on the main thoroughfare of Dublin, the Clerys Quarter project involved the repair, restoration, and extension to the historic Clerys Building, originally constructed in 1922. The development also saw the construction of a new six-storey building. The completed development provides 32,000m2 of mixed-use space for retail, cafe, office, and hospitality use. The project involved the conservation of existing building fabric and retention of the 1922 concrete structure, with the addition of an independent large-span steel structure to support three new additional floors and roof. The consultant C&S engineers were appointed from concept to completion for the development. The scheme demonstrates an innovative and sensitive design approach to the delivery of a project involving a building of cultural significance on a challenging site. The project is an example of engineering excellence, with an innovative design utilising BIM. This redevelopment will form an integral part of the regeneration O’Connell Street and the wider north city centre.
