Abstract

Designing innovative forms of reinforced brickwork is always challenging. When a brick manufacturer decided to rebuild an office building, the opportunity to do just this proved irresistible. The building envelope exploited diaphragm walling and reinforced brickwork was used in a balcony beam and in the main staircase as well as for 1 metre high external retaining walls.
