Sheridan House
Stunning 1400kg Glass Ridge Lights Installation at Luxury Home
Weighing a combined 1400kg
Installation of a bespoke structural glass ridge light, a centrepiece of a carefully phased glazing project for a high-end residence that exemplifies the seamless integration of structural engineering and architectural intent.
Steel Framework
Crafted from a modified universal column, the flange was expertly removed to create a robust structural T-section. Staggered steel sections were precision-welded to the web, ensuring stability across the span.
Glass Innovation
Four insulated glass units, weighing a combined 1400kg, were structurally bonded to the steel frame. The result is an elegant all-glass appearance when viewed from above, with every detail engineered to deliver clarity and strength.
A Phased Approach to Design and Delivery:
Phase One: Minimal glazing to the new extension
Phase Two: The ridge light installation (featured here)
Phase Three: Minimal glazing to the existing house
This project reflects our commitment to precision, craftsmanship, and innovation in the pursuit of architectural excellence.
