PCE Ltd worked in co-operation with MACE, developing a hybrid design and build solution, principally using offsite engineered precast concrete components, to provide a solution for the five suspended level car park structure that would also incorporate an area of multi-level retail space at its front.
Known as the Lexicon, the town centre development has been undertaken by the Bracknell Regeneration Partnership, a joint venture between Legal and General, Schroders and Bracknell Forest Council to provide much needed extensive shopping, restaurant, entertainment and facilities.
Over 24,00m² of the GT units were deployed in order to minimise on-site construction times, reducing the depth of structure, number of erection lifts, and the amount of follow-on trades as no in-situ structural topping is required. The units arrived to site on a just-in-time basis with a factory applied anti slip finish.
