Royal Lancaster 19th Floor

To help create a new event space for a the Royal Lancaster Hotel. We were requested to demolish two columns in a former plant room on the 19th Floor. Requiring us to construct a 14.5m truss system to replace their structural role.

Effectively we built a bridge on the 19th floor spanning the width of the building with all steel coming up in a lift & being welded together on site. Both on the ground and in situ.

The installation had to take into consideration 3 live services which could not be diverted without shutting down the whole hotel. Once installed the columns could then be demolished and steel sprayed black with an intumescent paint coating.
