Originally built by the London Power Company in 1929 to the design of Leonard Pearce, the Battersea Power Station is one of the world’s largest brick buildings. The decommissioned industrial behemoth was notable for its original Art Deco interior fittings and décor. In recent years, this iconic Wandsworth landmark has been revived to provide 386 new homes at affordable rents and for shared ownership. Inspired by London’s classic red brick mansion blocks, the plan entails seven blocks of up to 18 stories arranged around a garden square that sits at the heart of the site.

Challenges & Solutions

Input Received: Hand Sketches & Markups
Pinnacle’s BIM experts hold extensive experience with local building codes and Standards of Practice across 40+ countries. Pinnacalites can accurately deduce design intent and produce drawings with spacecraft-grade accuracy from even the shakiest of hand sketches.

Frequent Design Changes
With 1800+ architects and engineers, Pinnacle can easily supplement project teams with additional detailers to assist clients through critical situations.

Time Zone Differences
Our dedicated Regional Relationship Managers across 9 Global Delivery Centers ensure we are available, whenever and wherever clients need us.

Value Added

We executed the Reinforcement Tonnage Estimation for the overall project before execution. Moreover, use of Rebar CAD for Reinforcement Detailing ensured high volume accurate delivery in a short time frame along with Automated Bar Bending Schedules.

Pinnacalites issued a number of RFI’s proposing solutions for Coordination & Constructability Issues at the Battersea Power Station. We maintained a log related to these design issues & feasible solutions which we shared with the client at frequent intervals.
