The problem

A tenant wanted a mezzanine inside a leased unit, but the existing slab and columns were never designed for the extra load.

What I did

Assessed the capacity of the existing concrete frame against the proposed mezzanine loads

Designed a self-supporting steel mezzanine that transfers load to strengthened columns

Produced signed and sealed plans and coordinated with the building administration

Outcome

The mezzanine was approved by the building administration and built during a single fit-out period.
