Project Overview

GSA provided full structural engineering services for the expansion of the Athelis Health Club. The project required detailed design of an upper-level tennis court above a functioning gym space, with minimal disruption.

Scope of Work

GSA’s role encompassed the foundation design, structural steel frame, and long-span floor deck development to support a first-floor tennis court, integrated into an existing fitness club with ongoing operations.

Key Features
  • High-Load Composite Floor Design – Engineered to support athletic use and reduce vibration transfer.
  • Steel Frame Integration – Tied into existing building to maintain spatial and architectural flow.
  • Minimal Disruption Planning – Structural phasing designed to accommodate an active ground-floor gym.

Challenges and Solutions

Expanding Without Disrupting Production
Our phased design strategy allowed ground floor facilities to remain operational during steelwork installation and slab construction.

Regulatory Compliance & Sustainability
Vibration, sound, and load controls were embedded in design to meet building regs and premium member experience expectations.

Outcome
