Pro-Life Paisley Lead Structural Project Overview
Internal Alterations and wall removal within a commercial restaurant application.
This project was based in a tenement at duke street where internal walls were required to be removed to add bathroom space for customers. The works also involved removing internal walls where new toilets, stores and customer sitting space was required. These alterations gave a more open plan view of the restaurant.
Steel frames and Beams on padstones were used to achieve these wall removals as the walls were load bearing. Where the wall removal was required to achieve an opening for customers to go to the toilets a beam was proposed on padstones. As the existing wall was weak in nature it was proposed that new engineering brick piers were to be constructed on pad foundations to achieve the bearing strength.
To provide more space internally a picture frame of 203 UB was proposed onto 100mm SHS columns. The frame was designed to be within the floor space.
We prepared and managed the necessary approvals including the building warrant process and provided an end to end service with as little disturbance to the client’s renovations.

The assessment of the Pro-life paisley building aimed to determine its suitability for a Solar PV Installation. This evaluation involved an on-site inspection coupled with the systematic compilation of necessary data. Subsequently, calculations were conducted to assess both the existing roof loadings and those expected for the proposed Solar PV installation. Our team conducted thorough evaluations, encompassing both roof condition assessment and structural condition assessment, adhering to Eurocodes for structural analysis. We meticulously inspected structural elements, verifying the soundness of the building’s framework. Additionally, we specialise in PV assessment and fitting design, offering expertise in both ballast and direct fix types. This comprehensive approach ensured a deep understanding of the property’s structural capacity and its suitability for accommodating solar panels, thus enabling informed decision-making regarding the installation process.
