BIM

We believe that the best way to create efficient designs is to work in a collaborative Building Information Modelling (BIM) environment.
Since 2016, we have been developing our designs in a 3D environment for all new projects at LSY to deliver a wide range of benefits, including:

Using BIM to evaluate a brief helps to avoid clashes and reduces the cost of changes.

BIM drives efficiencies during the whole building lifecycle, from initial planning and design to construction and operation, easing project management.

BIM

BIM-enabling technology allows for effective information control, sharing, validation and reuse.


A BIM model is more than a nice 3D image: it’s a data-rich file that holds information from the concept idea through the construction phase and all the way to the end-user facilities management team.


The collaborative, multidisciplinary nature of BIM highlights construction issues at an early stage of the design process and reduces the possibility of errors on site, ultimately saving our clients time and money.

The project comprised an extensive programme of refurbishment works, including a basement extension, new swimming pool installation, roof extension, and significant structural alterations throughout the existing building. Given the scale and complexity of the development, temporary works played a critical role in ensuring the stability of both the building and neighbouring properties throughout construction. Our appointment included the design, coordination, and inspection of numerous temporary works elements, including: Basement wall propping Hoarding design Masonry façade retention systems Needling arrangements Scaffold support designs Shaft excavation support structures Swimming pool support arrangements Temporary propping systems Underpinning support systems

Vine Street, London, UK

LSY Engineering Consultants Ltd was appointed by Cadent Gas Ltd to undertake structural surveys and structural appraisal checks for an existing road bridge near Farringdon Station, London. The project formed part of a gas network upgrade programme and involved the installation of two new medium-pressure cast iron (CI MP) pipes beneath the existing bridge structure. The works included abandoning an existing 48-inch cast iron main and replacing it with a 36-inch pipe incorporating a 630mm polyethylene (PE) medium-pressure gas main. Our role included assessing the existing bridge structures, evaluating the impact of the proposed additional loads, and undertaking post-construction inspections to verify that the completed works had not adversely affected the structural integrity of the bridges.
