HSP Consulting were commissioned to provide Civil, Structural and Geo-Environmental engineering input into the design and development of a new supermarket store in Colne, to be occupied by Sainsbury’s.

The scheme incorporated a two storey steel framed structure onto mass concrete foundations and built on a sloping site, such that an undercroft needed to be incorporated to half of the building with significant retaining walls due to the slope and a side retaining wall adjacent to the site entrance to overcome the level difference. The development was built on time and to programme.
