A mid-rise 1970s building in East Malaysia is being given a new lease of life. We assessed this building that is located along the coast for the causes of the defects observed, the residual structural capacity, remedial measures for the preservation of the building and feasibility study of the possible adaptive reuse. The adaptive reuse and remedial design is currently being done.

An invited design competition for Signature Market’s headquarters and new factory. Our entry was called Signature Park, emphasising biophilic design where employees could experience various aspects of nature whilst they worked. In line with this theme, a structural timber hybrid option was tabled in addition to the conventional reinforced concrete structure.

Modern and highly architectural refurbishment of an existing structure for change of use as an F&Boutlet. Work included addition of a mezzanine level, partial demolition of floor structure, floor extension along building perimeter and new roof overhang. The engineering design was approached in a manner that would not require the existing structure to be strengthened, whilst still meeting the architectural intent.

We from time to time provide technical advisory support and design review for BubbledeckMalaysia on several of their projects. Bubbledeck is a proprietary part precast voided flat slab system that uses approximately 30% less concrete than a conventional slab, resulting in considerable reduction in column loads and subsequently foundation loads, especially for high-rises.
