John Creed and Associates designed the structure of the building on Wexford’s Custom House Quay for local dentist, Dr Robin Foyle.<\/p>\n

For ease of construction, it was decided to build the surgery at the rear of the old building rather than attempting to alter the older building.<\/p>\n

However as all this area is formed on infilled ground, this left us with a decision as to what type of foundations. The foundations couldn’t be normal strip foundations due to the weakness of the underlying soil.\u00a0Accordingly a decision was made to build the\u00a0surgery off a reinforced concrete raft foundation. This was further reinforced with perimeter walls and the surgery was build up off these walls raising the building above flood levels.<\/p>\n

Raft foundations have an added advantage over traditional build in that they involve less disturbance to the underlying soil and can be useful if there is a risk of archaeological material being encountered.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
