Michael Punch and Partners Ltd has
successfully completed numerous landmark projects in the public and private
sector in a range of areas as well as pioneering practical solutions for
different engineering challenges. A number of these projects have involved the
restoration of buildings and structures and nationwide commissions for
assessment and rehabilitation work for bridges. Where possible existing
structural elements have been left intact or have been reused so that they
perform the structural tasks for which they were originally intended.
The practice's chief aim when working on the rehabilitation of existing buildings is to design and detail a structure that is unobtrusive and often hidden so that the building still looks and performs as originally intended by its designers. Often a radical change of use, as in the case of the Wicklow Head Lighthouse, requires innovative solutions to difficult problems. The staff at Michael Punch and Partners works closely with architects and builders to develop cost effective buildable and attractive details.
The experience, confidence and enthusiasm of the staff in the four offices ensure a rapid response to queries and a dedication to team spirit.
