Earls Court roof deconstruction wins BCIA award

16 October 2018

Congratulations to Wentworth House Partnership and Keltbray for their success at the British Construction Industry Awards 2018 for the demolition of Earls Court Exhibition Centre. They won the Temporary Works Initiative of the Year (Building) category for the project in which CampbellReith played a key role working collaboratively with Wentworth House checking and independently designing the temporary works and demolition operations.

Some of the key operations gaining recognition from the judges were the innovative method used in lowering the main Earls Court 1 roof and the successful removal of bridge 19 from above the Network rail West London Line. CampbellReith has been pleased to work closely with the client and contractors on this project for the last ten years. Our detailed knowledge of the original structure was utilised to great effect for the now multi-award winning project.
