Basement raft slab concrete pour at Imperial

Our project at Imperial College London saw the continuation of the basement raft slab construction. The basement, which is nine metres deep and measures 35 metres by 35 metres (1225m2), is the first section of basement that will eventually form the link between various future developments.

The raft slab itself consists of 9no. concrete pours containing 130tonnes of reinforcement and 650m3 of concrete.

Following completion of the below ground concrete elements a suspended ground floor slab that ties into a concrete capping beam will be constructed with various utilities and landscaping works to follow.
