Setting the Standard at Balfour Lane
CORE was engaged to deliver Facade Consultancy and Engineering for the Balfour Lane development – a mixed-use project combining residential living (59 luxury apartments) with an impressive retail hub. With different performance demands across residential and retail interfaces, the facade required a carefully coordinated approach to ensure compliance, durability and buildability across the entire development.
Our role extended beyond design – working closely with Builtcom and the consultant team to align intent, manage risk and support a smooth path from documentation through to construction.
CORE provided end-to-end facade engineering and advisory services:
- Coordination across the design and construction teams
- Preparation of the Facade Performance Specification
- Safety in Design (SiD) review and advice for facade systems
- FP1.4 Performance Solution Report
- Structural certification and declaration of facade systems in accordance with DBPA
- Construction phase support, including hold point inspections
- Final Quality Control (QC) certification
Turning complexity into clarity…
Navigating mixed-use performance requirements
Balanced the differing needs of residential and retail interfaces – ensuring the facade system performed across acoustic, weatherproofing and durability requirements.
Clarity in compliance and certification
Interpreted and applied current codes, standards and DBPA requirements – providing the client with confidence that compliance obligations were met without ambiguity.
Keeping the project moving
Responsive communication and proactive coordination helped resolveissues quickly, reducing delays and avoiding unnecessary rework on site.
A trusted presence throughout delivery
By staying engaged from early design through to final certification, we supported better decision-making, reduced risk and contributed to a more seamless delivery process.
