AQ15Sample project

Ashvale Quarter

Bolt-on steel balconies on cast-in stubs, and concrete balconies with side-fixed balustrades

Four eight-storey blocks on a boulevard, drawn as a live site. On block B the balconies go on: each frame is lifted in, landed on its Leviat stubs and bolted, and its fascia, soffit and decking follow. Block A is finished: bolt-on stacks on the street side, concrete balconies with post-and-panel balustrades on the courtyard side.
