2024 Winners

Barry Kingscote

2024 Construction Manager of the Year

Barry Kingscote’s calmness, professionalism and enthusiasm for problem-solving drove success on a scheme that had trouble written all over it, with busy roads on the site perimeter, multiple party walls, a retained facade, and construction of a large second-level basement. 

The Project

1-4 Marble Arch, London

Demolition and reconstruction of eight-storey building with retained facade, completed in 192 weeks.

By challenging the design and championing cost- and programme-efficient solutions, Barry delivered value and innovation. He introduced a reinforced concrete core in place of steel, and blockwork in place of precast panels. Crucially, he formed the second level of the basement with secant piling rather than sheet, which reduced vibration and noise as well as complexity and cost by allowing part of the building load to be transferred through the new secant wall.
