SCHÖCK
SCHÖCK ISOKORB MEETS A NUMBER OF CHALLENGES AT LOTS ROAD
Once a neglected industrial site , Chelsea Waterfront in SW10 , is being impressively transformed and minimising any risk of thermal bridging throughout has been key . In addition to meeting the relevant Building Regulations , this is also important in meeting the criteria for the impending Future Homes Standard . The Isokorb load-bearing structural thermal break from Schöck offers the ideal solution in meeting all necessary compliances .
This is a two-phase development ; the first being completed in 2019 and resulting in four riverside buildings and a 37-storey West Tower . The second phase is now well under way with the centrepiece being the old Lots Road Power Station , which first became operational in 1905 and eventually powered most of the London Underground for almost 80 years . The old Power Station is an iconic building and careful refurbishment will result in retention of the external walls , steel frame , chimneys and selected internal steelwork .
