Talbot Heath School
Structural Engineering Design
Our team in Poole undertook the structural engineering design for the new three-storey teaching block for an independent girls school in Talbot Woods, Bournemouth. The building includes a 600 seat auditorium, classrooms, breakout spaces as well as providing a roof and changing rooms for an existing swimming pool.
The building was designed as a steel frame with composite, profiled metal deck floors and a ground bearing slab with extensive detailing around facades, exposed steelwork connections and the high/low level interfaces.
Talbot Heath School utilised BIM with full collaboration between the Architect and M&E Engineers utilising Revit software to provide the client with a fully realised design before construction commenced.
Talbot Heath is a leading independent school in Dorset that offers girls aged 3-18 an outstanding education within a strong and supportive community.
