Carriglea – Modern Prefabricated Construction
Carriglea is a residential complex located on Naas Road in southwest Dublin, consisting of two phases of construction. The project includes a total of 11 residential blocks with varying heights, ranging from five to eight floors, delivering approximately 370-375 apartments. The development offers modern, energy-efficient homes that meet high-quality standards.
Phase 1 – 2020-2021
Work on Phase 1 began in March 2020 when we received the first data from other industries. After the consultation phase, key information was delivered in September 2020, allowing the main design work to commence. Precast was responsible for the structural calculations and the digital model of the construction. Phase 1 was completed in November 2021. The construction included three residential blocks, where 200 mm thick precast concrete walls and 250 mm thick hollow-core slabs, topped with 75 mm of in-situ concrete, were used. Prefabricated stairs and other structural elements enabled quick and efficient assembly on-site.
Phase 2 – 2022-2023
Work on Phase 2 began in March 2022 when we received the first drawings from other industries. The project phase was completed in October 2023. Phase 2 includes eight residential blocks, utilizing the same modern prefabrication technologies as in Phase 1. Thanks to BIM technology, we were able to coordinate activities across multiple industries effectively and monitor the progress of the project. The 200 mm thick precast walls and hollow-core slabs ensured structural durability, and the use of full prestressed slabs allowed for greater spans in selected areas.
Application of Prefabrication and BIM Technology
In both phases of the Carriglea project, prefabrication technology played a key role in shortening the construction time, minimizing on-site work. As a result, the project was completed quickly and efficiently, while maintaining a high standard of quality. BIM technology enabled precise coordination across all industries, eliminating potential problems at an early stage of the project.
Tekla BIM Awards 2023
The combined phases 1 and 2 of the Carriglea project won the Tekla BIM Awards 2023 in Poland in the Commercial Projects category. This prestigious award is a testament to the innovative technological solutions and advanced coordination used in the project. More information about the winners can be found here: Tekla BIM Awards 2023.
