One London Wall
Project Title: One London Wall, London Client: The London Wall Partnership Developer: Hammerson and Kajima Europe B.V. Architect: Foster and Partners Principal Contractor: Sir Robert McAlpine Ltd Quantity Surveyor: Davis Langdon & Everest icon Specification: SN.1C and SN.4G.5E.6B.X3

Due to a number of existing and imposed constraints, One London Wall is one of the most complex city office buildings ever designed by Foster and Partners. The development is adjacent to the west wall of the Roman Fort, part of the London Wall and hence a scheduled ancient monument.
The Post Office tunnel runs through the site and construction had to take place over the existing Plaisterer’s Hall. It was a requirement for the height of the building to remain under the St. Paul’s view cone, giving rise to a stepped section across a plan which is curved to follow the line of London Wall as it meets the corner with Aldersgate Street.
The building is supported by a combination of new and re-used foundations and as a result of the need to preserve aspects of the existing structures, the lowest passenger lift lobby is at first floor. The transition from ground to first floor is achieved via escalators through a spectacular nine metre high entrance hall on London Wall.

One London Wall
The Bespoke System icon TUBE is manufactured in Stainless Steel or NyMet® coated aluminium and can also be supplied as a distinctive combination of both. Natural Hardwood handrails compliment either finish and NyMet® coatings range from unique metallics to an endless choice of BS, RAL or even specially formulated solid colours. The system is extremely flexible offering numerous bracket designs for wall mounted handrails and balustrade guarding options include in line or offset glass, perforated steel panels, intermediate rails or stainless steel tensioned wire ropes.
Versatility, Reliability Since inception, icon has grown to become the Industry’s preferred specification for high quality handrail solutions and continues to evolve as the most versatile modular system on the market. icon brings added value to a construction project offering freedom of choice, quality control and confidence in the knowledge that the system has been tried, tested and endorsed by countless leading Professionals within the field.
Infinite Options, One System Extensive configurations and a broad range of finishes enable the Specifier to create a product that is truly individual. Specifications can also be varied within the same scheme, either as a design or cost driven process and whilst levels of expenditure are catered for between front and back of house applications, an overall uniformity of detailing is maintained throughout.
Clean Lines icon is manufactured as a series of machined or cast fittings, mechanically connected together to create a highly engineered product with precise, clean lines between adjoining components. The system has a sharp, sophisticated appearance, unhindered by the presence of unsightly welds as can often be the case with fabricated alternatives.
Concealed Fixings icon endorses positive detailing and with such emphasis placed on precision it is complimen- tary for fixing screws and bolt heads to be discretely concealed wherever possible. End caps, cover discs and rosettes feature in the design of all key components to provide a tidy and tamper proof solution, particularly appropriate for public and educational building applications.
Superior Finish Stainless steel icon is supplied with a radially polished brushed satin finish and the aluminium version, which already benefits from an inherently superior surface to that of mild steel, is further enhanced by the application of a unique NyMet® coating system. Natural hardwood handrails are polished and lacquered.
More information on the range and specification of icon finishes can be found on page 36.
Technical Performance icon has been developed in accordance with the design criteria specified in BS 6180:1999 and side loading requirements for all building- use categories can be accommodated including the 3 kN/m horizontal UDL designated for areas susceptible to overcrowding. Internal and external specifications are available for the NyMet® finished aluminium system including the Stainless Steel range which is supplied in 304 and 316 grade variants. Curved rails can be considered and special adaptations of the system are often incorporated to suit the individual needs or preferences of each project.
Supplied, Installed icon is available Internationally on a supply and installation basis as a specialist Architectural Handrail & Balustrade package procured directly by the Client, Developer or Principle Contractor.
icon on line Subscribers can compile icon specifications within the NBS Plus software package or alternatively, standard specification templates can be obtained from the Internet; at www.handraildesign.co.uk. it is also possible to download AutoCAD drawings of the system components together with generic handrail and balustrade designs.

icon TUBE is a modular handrail and balustrade system aimed at raising the standard of product options open to present day Architects and Specifiers. Advocating design consistency across a comprehensive range of styles and finishes, icon represents the most practical, commercially viable and quality conscious solutions utilising the finest contemporary materials. The icon system introduces new levels of schematic control, allows staircase geometry to be optimised and guarantees an installation that meets with original expectations.
