Dice

Dice is delighted to share that planning has been submitted for the expansion of Anchor Group's Cardamom Court, a £10 million extra care facility located in Newham. Delivering 34 new one-bedroom apartments across a four-story extension, the new development shall compliment the existing 4 storey building which is being remodelled, increasing capacity to 70 apartments. Our team are proud to have been appointed via the Anchor Group development framework to deliver civil and structural consultancy services across RIBA stage 01 to 06, including substructure, superstructure, flood risk and drainage design. In collaboration with Dice Environmental, we also carried out phase 1 and 2 ground investigations and contaminated land surveys to ensure full environmental compliance. The expansion not only increases capacity but also enhances communal spaces and bedroom suites within the existing facility. A courtyard garden and roof terraces will provide welcoming external space for residents, while preserving the charm of existing accommodation. 🌇 We’re grateful to Anchor Group for entrusting us with this opportunity and look forward to seeing the positive impact this development will have on the community, enriching the lives of residents.

We are currently working on the detailed design of a unique sculpture as part of the Boston Town Centre Regeneration, utilising parametric modelling in Grasshopper to mathematically define the 3D curved geometry, allowing us to integrate the complex form into our analysis and BIM modelling. 🌀 Working closely with the main contractor, Lindum Group, we are currently exploring various construction methods to develop a cost-effective and buildable solution. Paired with our material investigations that has considered options such as steel and timber, we are currently completing the detailed structural design with a scheme that incorporates curved steel CHS tube sections to achieve the complex geometry and large cantilevers.
