Project Features:
Hatzola Northwest Trust is a Jewish volunteer ambulance service, providing emergency medical support 24/7 to those in need. Beam Designs and JMS Engineers have partnered with Hatzola Northwest Trust to convert Pearl House, Finchley Road into a fully functional ambulance station, supporting the organisation's critical work.
During this project, our structural engineers identified non-load-bearing walls for safe demolition and recommended installing structural steel frames to ensure the building's integrity. By incorporating galvanised steel beams and reinforced columns anchored to existing masonry, we will create safe, spacious openings for ambulance access.
Our approach ensures full compliance with British Standards, while using temporary supports during construction to maintain the structure's safety throughout.
