The stone tower research project has been used to inform building typologies for our research and cost information for the Liverpool Waters section

  • It delves in to the comparative cost, programme and embodied CO2 for a notional commercial office tower built out of different materials, mostly comparing with stone towers.

The below graph analyses the differing cost results from the research:

The below graph anaylses the associated Global warming potential of the different material structures:

The below drawings looks into the associated details of pre-tensionsed beams and trusses drawn to show how certain components have been realised related to this project:
