70-78 Old Hill Street

JMS Engineers delivered structural design services for 70–78 Old Hill Street, London - a mixed-use scheme comprising a reinforced concrete-framed apartment block with commercial units at ground floor. The structural solution was developed to accommodate open-plan commercial space at street level, requiring careful coordination of load paths and column positioning to support the residential storeys above.

A roof-level extension was integrated into the design, using lightweight construction methods to limit additional loading on the main frame. The RC structure was designed to manage vertical and lateral forces efficiently within a constrained urban footprint. JMS worked collaboratively with the project team to refine slab thicknesses, simplify detailing, and ensure structural performance aligned with the architectural and commercial requirements.
