Dublin Convention Centre

The Convention Centre Dublin in Spencer Dock, a Public Private Partnership project between the Office of Public Works and Spencer Dock International Conference Centre Limited, was successfully completed in September 2010. The project was a Design and Build project, with the design team novated to CMP, the design & build contractor. The building comprises two large exhibition spaces (with capacity for 2000 people each), a 2000 seater world class auditorium and numerous multi purpose meeting room facilities.

 

 

The building is unusual in that all of the above spaces are stacked vertically, with a limited number of structural support columns allowed in the functional spaces. The primary structural frame is structural steel, with the basement slab/retaining walls and exposed external slabs constructed in reinforced concrete.

 

 

O’Connor Sutton Cronin were the Civil/Structural Engineer’s on this exciting and challenging project, bringing nearly twenty years of experience working with complex structural projects to the project.
