Signature Building Gouldshill Business Park Mallow

Mallow Building
MHL provided the Engineering design for the Gouldshill Business Park Development

Following a public procurement process MHL were appointed as Design Engineers for the development of a Business Park at Gouldshill, Mallow by the development section of Cork County Council. As part of the competition process MHL submitted a proposed layout for the site which addressed key issues such as the steep gradient of the site, access proposals and servicing options. The brief outlined was to provide a sustainable design whilst adhering to the requirements of the client.

Following appointment MHL carried out a detailed topographical survey of the site followed by a preliminary site investigation to determine the suitability of the subsoil for road construction purposes. The primary aim of the design for the site was to optimise the available development land whilst minimising the cost associated with retaining walls and the impact on adjoining lands and properties. The final layout which proceeded to Part VIII planning in September 2007 was widely accepted as the best layout for the site.

Part VIII Planning

This Business Park Layout as shown includes for the provision of  23750 sq.m of Office Based Development and can cater for up to 950 number of employees.  The project is to be developed using the latest environmentally friendly techniques and will rely heavily on intense landscaping and architecture to blend a very prominent site.
