Longcross House
Logistics and Design for Cardiff Development Project
The site is situated in a well-populated area of Cardiff close to the city centre. A detailed site logistics plan was required, to consider the steel frame erection and materials storage. The proposed design is robust and consists of a steel frame system with external brick work. The proposed design is in accordance with the Welsh Government 'Development Quality Requirements' (DQR) and 'Secured by Design'. The project consists of 8 Nr. 2B3P and 27 Nr. 1B2P flats. The project was completed in May 2024 for Cardiff Community Housing Association.
About the project
The building achieved an EPC ‘A’ rating, incorporating renewable energy sources and energy efficient materials/building components into the design.
We prioritised the employment of local labour and suppliers where possible, we planned on giving back to the local community. In addition, the development was registered with the Considerate Constructors Scheme for the duration of the project.
The project started in June 2022 and was completed in May 2024.
