Chesterfield, Jewson – King Post Wall
Complex King Post Wall design, build and install to accommodate
Jewson – one of the UK’s most prominent builders’ merchants.
As the HS2 Station Master plan sets out a vision to create a
vibrant gateway to the North, the current location of the Jewson’s
Chesterfield branch is no longer suitable due to the impact of
works carried out to develop the HS2.
Jewson, which currently owns 500 branches across the UK,
has relocated their former chesterfield branch to Sheffield Road,
continuing their brand’s presence in Chesterfield, which has been
a home for Jewson for just over 25 years.
Morgan Sindall was appointed as the main contractor and expect
the end-project to be completed in early 2022.
Aarsleff Ground Engineering has been sub-contracted to assist
with slope stabilisation, and therefore proposed construction
for a king post retaining wall solution to enable the formation of
a commercial unit and service yard. The lower-level design for
the service yard has been designed to allow direct access from
Sheffield Road. The king post wall also supports the existing
Stagecoach yard during and after excavation works.
