description

Yamaroshi is a mixed-use development which is set to reinvent inner-city living upon its completion. This boutique project incorporates three carpark basements, two retail floors and five residential floors. The distinctive front facade of the building consists of unique balcony profiles.

Indesco’s Scope of Works included:
• Structural Engineering
• Post Tension Design
• Shoring Design
• Value Engineering
• Temporary Works Design
• Precast Panel Shop Drawings
• Facade Engineering
• Civil Engineering

Structural design was challenging due to the large internal open space envisaged by the architects. The architectural form for the front balconies required design and analysis to be carried out using 3D finite element modelling.

As the site is ‘locked in’ from three of the four boundaries, early detailed coordination of structural design concepts with other consultants was required in order to complete the design successfully. 3D prints of the balconies were completed to aid in the coordination.
