Hotel Karl Johan

Hotel Karl Johan is a complex refurbishment project in the center of Oslo. Three old buildings with different levels and complex structure. Consigli's hotel optimisation achieved an increase of hotel rooms by 6%, compared to the architect’s proposal.

Spjelkavika arena

Consigli's optimised solution unveiled the potential for centralising the plant rooms on one side of the gymnastics hall so that O&M procedures are simplified, and the transport of technical equipment can be done without the use of steep staircases. This also removed the need for a 40 m2 walkway above the gymnastics hall, which enables a reduction in ceiling height which may result in considerable savings

Detailed descriptions

Halsen School

Consigli's optimisation products were used towards the last part of the collaboration phase in the construction of a school, before shifting to a D&B contract. Consigli's delivery consisted of optimising the location and extent of plant rooms on the roof, and the technical system in the ceiling, as well as assessing the programmed area compared to the designed area.

Consigli generated solutions for one centralised plant room on the roof, whereas the initial proposal consisted of two separate rooms. The optimised design merged the plant rooms while also reducing the required area by 90 m2. Additionally, O&M was improved by having streamlined access to technical components, enabling all service to be carried out within the same room.

There was no ceiling grid, nor technical components in the ceiling plan at the time of Consigli’s optimisation. Consigli proposed a cross-disciplinary coordinated ceiling grid for ventilation and sprinklers for all floors, in addition to an optimised pathway for the duct network above the ceiling. This solution reduces future engineering hours required for cross-disciplinary designing of ceiling plans.

The designing group for the school had made several attempts in reducing the footprint of the building, targeting potential cost reductions. Consigli made a comparative analysis of the programmed area and the designed area, revealing all discrepancies between the two. The results were presented to the client, providing insight into which areas could be optimised for potential space reduction. Based on the client’s preferences, Consigli generated an optimised floor plan with a reduction of the excess gross area of 180 m2. The proposed floor plan provided valuable insight enabling the contractor and client to make qualified decisions for the potential area and cost reductions.

Møllergata 37

Consigli's hotel optimisation product was used to fit more rooms inside the footprint of the building, achieving a larger income potential, on top of an existing architectural solution. Any restrictions within the building footprint, the required mix of room types, and the expected income per room were first identified together with the client. After the initial optimisation, based on the architect’s proposed footprint, the optimised result increased the total number of hotel rooms. Due to fire and safety regulations towards neighbouring buildings, the client required a feasibility study of a reduced building footprint relocating an exterior wall. Using Consigli’s optimisation product, this study was completed within a few hours. The final optimised solution for the reduced building footprint achieved an increase of hotel rooms by 16%, compared to the architect’s proposal. This solution increased the client’s potential income, building value, and reduced carbon footprint.

Spjelkavik arena

The municipality Møre & Romsdal used Consigli both to check the quality of the tender documents and to optimise plant rooms in a 6600 m2 sports arena. The project design was mature and had gone through several iterations of pre-design.

After the municipality's own quality assurance, Consigli still unveiled several remaining elements of risk and missing items in their tender documents. The results were promptly presented to the customer to rectify this before contracting a contractor.

The existing solution for plant rooms for the sports arena was two rooms located underneath the ceiling on opposite sides. Consigli'soptimised solution unveiled the potential for centralising the plant rooms on one side of the gymnastics hall so that O&M procedures are simplified, and the transport of technical equipment can be done without the use of steep staircases. This also removed the need for a 40 m2 walkway above the gymnastics hall, which enables a reduction in ceiling height which may result in considerable savings.

Klemetsrud school

Consigli's optimisation products were used during pre-planning of a school to help define key parameters for the application for general permission for construction.

The design group had made several attempts to reduce the footprint of the building. Consigli then provided a comparative analysis of the programmed area and the designed area, revealing all discrepancies between the two. The results were presented to the client, providing insight into which areas could be optimised and potentially reduced in size. Based on the client’s preferences, Consigli generated an optimised floor plan with a reduction of the excess gross area by 56 m2. The proposed floor plan provided valuable insight enabling the client to make qualified decisions for potential area reduction.

The plant room in the cellar was optimised based on the technical equipment planned to be used in the project. Rearranging the technical components, while still enabling streamlined service and maintenance, reduced the required space by 80m2 (25%). As the plant room was positioned underground, this reduced the excavation volume by 240m3. In addition, an alternative floor plan was presented where vertical shafts for ventilation had been adjusted. This provided both a reduced size of the plant room and less interference between vertical shafts and structural components.
