The most recent Major project Enrique Moragas has had a Design Management role is a significant transformation, repurposing an old factory into a contemporary office space and event hub. Since its acquisition in 2017, the site has undergone thorough feasibility assessments to confirm its economic sustainability and planning compliance. A concerted effort from architects and engineers has been dedicated over several years to bring this ambitious project to life.

Deciphering the original intent and architectural nuances of the old factory was key to maximizing the building's potential reuse. Grasping the inherent quality of the existing structure, its original purpose, and the historical decisions made to address structural challenges has been an essential part of the redevelopment process.

A major UK contractor is now adding value to the project under a PCSA contract, perfecting the construction approach. Leading the charge in structural engineering is Enrique Moragas [E.M.], Regional Director at Waterman Structures, who has been pivotal in devising a refurbishment plan that creatively preserves the original structure and foundations, which includes an impressive array of 1,400 piles.

Enrique Moragas has evolved his Structural Engineering Design Management Capabilities while delivering a number of projects in Central London over the last ten years.
