Family Home South.

ArchiPro Project Summary - Bespoke 230 m2 family home in South Christchurch featuring a custom waffle slab foundation and a sleek entrance roof design, optimized for open-plan living and structural integrity.

Title:: Family Home, South Christchurch
Structural Engineer:: Pocket
Category:: Residential/; New Builds

This new 230 m2 dwelling on a TC2 site required a bespoke waffle slab foundation including geometric additions to suit the architectural layout and a stepped arrangement to support the external extension of the roof.

The roof over the entrance has been designed to provide a thin eaves profile as viewed from the street.

Bracing design required some careful consideration to transfer loads across the open-plan living space.
