This is a more detailed view of a steel window frame (as seen in photo four), taken from the upper floor. The frame is suspended out onto the street using the support of steel lugs and welding.

This is a view from the lower floor looking towards the upper floor. I thought this may have been constructed to be a balcony, but was told that this was designed purely for visual purposes.

The upper flooring (as seen here) is acheived by using precast hollow core planks (supplied by West Con Precast) of 20 MPa, and is pre-stressed using metal reinforcement. A 75mm layer of concrete is then poured over this on site, to create a single, smooth surface.
The walls are also made of concrete (30-35 Mpa) and are supplied by Gary Simpson and partners.
