Popis: Kelvin Hall is an iconic 1926 building in Glasgow, Scotland, that has served as an exhibition hall, museum and indoor sports arena. In the past 10 years the building has undergone its latest iteration of reuse, with installation of a public gym, sports halls and archive facility. In 2022 a new self-contained film and television studio was added within the existing structure. This paper describes the building’s latest adaptation and the various challenges encountered. It aims to provide practical guidance to engineers involved with similar building reuse and repurposing projects.
