Ark Venue Enfield

Ark Venue Enfield

Arc Venue in Enfield is a steel framed restaurant and entertainment venue. The foundations to the steel frame were a rigid ground bearing raft slab bearing on soils that were improved with of vibrofloatation, a specialist ground improvement method.

The excitement was added to the construction process when the vibroflotation contractor tried to cut corners and after treating only the thin top layer of the soils rather than full depth, departed from the building site. After some persuasion, the vibro contractor returned to do the work properly. The developer was MG developments and value of the project was £800,000. The property is now a successful wedding and general social gatherings venue.
