temporary works

For many years, Malachy Walsh and Partners have specialised in temporary work design out of the London office. In Ireland, the need for transparent and detailed temporary work design is becoming more and more apparent.

Malachy Walsh and Partners have been involved in many sensitive temporary work designs on bridges, marine developments and both commercial and residential projects. These have included six storey façade retentions; three level basement excavations and the temporary supports to the upper floors of buildings while the internal supports at ground are removed to open up the area for retail purposes.

The firm was responsible for the design of all the temporary works associated with the demolition of the U.K.’s Department of Environment Offices in London. These included three 20 storey tower blocks, which was the largest single demolition project in recent years in London. The firm also has extensive experience in below ground works including shafts (up to 20m deep); headings (up to 300m long) and coffer dams.
