Description

CASEA Bauprocalc KAP 830 – Hydraulic Lime Based Render was selected for the internal plastering in the renovation of this important historical house in Dublin.  Principal building contractor, Lee McCullough Consulting Engineers were tasked with this mammoth renovation project.  Smet Supported Partner, Tom Togher was selected for the application of the internal plaster.

Project in brief – (text from Lee McCullough Consulting Engineers)
Henrietta Street ranks amongst the more important architectural and urban ensembles of this country. It is the single most intact and important architectural collection of individual houses – as a street – in the city. In the international context, the street is of unique European significance, being the single remaining intact example of an early-18th century street of houses, which was at the forefront of what was to become the Georgian style.

Houses #3 and #14 were acquired by Dublin City Council in a bid to arrest their continued dilapidation and prevent collapse. Both houses had been significantly weakened by water ingress and consequent timber decay. The front wall of #3 was in particularly poor condition and significantly cracked. The rear wall of #14 had been weakened by past interventions and was close to the point of collapse.

Our brief was to restore structural integrity whilst minimising both cost and structural intervention of these important protected structures.

The selected plaster, CE Marked CASEA Bauprocalc KAP 830 is a factory produced hydraulic hardening render/plaster based on lime, specially designed for hand and machine application produced to EN 998-1: 2003.
