…..cantilevered corner
- Photo taken of a residentail building with mixed use at ground floor, next to Cornexchange Leeds city centre.
- A huge steel beam is neatly concealed behind the signage and cantilevered from two thick grey walls at ground floor.
- Clever design. The weight of the cantilvered structure above has been skillfully distributed between glazing and solid wall to reduce the loading on the suppoting beam below.
- The omission of a column allows the corner to float, provide shelter and an unobstructed route around the building.
