General Construction

The entire Fish Cellar site was excavated below ground to a depth of 4 meters where 5,000 tons of earth was extracted. Concrete piles were driven into the ground around the perimiter of the site.

Into this cavity an underground car park was built using some 2,000 tons of concrete and steel.

In some areas the concrete is 500mm thick. Making Probably the only Nuclear bond shelter in Cornwall .....

These tasks were an engineering feat in their own right. All structural work was designed and supervised by the structural engineers John Grimes Partnership, Cornwall.

The main structure of the development was built on top of this, using steel reinforced polystyrene sections into which concrete was poured. This gives the houses a thermal rating 2nd to none.
