Structural Shell

A controlled route to a weather-tight building.

For clients who want Kaislar to deliver the structural building while retaining control of their own interior fit-out.

Scope control

Is Structural Shell right for your project?

A defined route for clients who want clearer separation between the structural building and the later fit-out decisions.

The emphasis is scope control and commercial clarity: a defined building package before later specification choices begin.

  1. 01
    Already have an interior designer
  2. 02
    Already have fit-out contractors
  3. 03
    Intend to manage the internal finishes themselves
  4. 04
    Want Kaislar focused on the structural and weather-tight building
  5. 05
    Want clearer separation between core construction and later specification choices
Defined scope

What the Structural Shell route establishes.

The agreed specification, inclusions, exclusions and engineering requirements are confirmed for the individual project.

Structural building

Project-specific foundations, structure and agreed shell works.

Weather-tight scope

Defined envelope outcomes in accordance with the agreed specification.

Commercial boundaries

Clearer separation from later kitchens, bathrooms, finishes and client-managed fit-out.

Commercial qualifierStandard foundations are included. Piling and demolition are quoted separately.
Commercial clarity

The structure is only one part of the final project cost.

Structural construction can be defined much earlier than many interior decisions. The later stages can vary significantly as the specification develops.

Real structural shell-stage building

Kitchens & bathrooms

Flooring, lighting & sanitaryware

Joinery, finishes & client changes

The agreed shell may use Ytong AAC or Silka calcium-silicate masonry where appropriate to the project design and engineering requirements.

Two distinct routes

Structural Shell or Bespoke Design & Build?

The shell route defines the structural building. The bespoke route coordinates the complete project through fit-out and handover.
