]]> As part of the planned upgrades of Hall Street and Gould Lane in one of the busiest areas of Bondi, this project of mixed commercial and upper level small apartments features concrete framed construction and sensitive excavation support along with feature planters to external balconies. The 5 storey multi residential building was designed to suit the areas demographic while maximising the amenity of residents both long and short term in this busy area.

]]> This new seven storey student accommodation building is a critical new link between the historic Thyne and Reid buildings at the college. As part of this once in a generation capital works upgrade, the existing buildings are now interconnected and include new shared breakout spaces, music rooms and a new gym. An additional level was added on top of both Thyne and Reid buildings which required detailed existing building structural diagnostics and analysis along with a new excavated 2 storey basement directly adjacent to the existing foundations. Soldier piling and ground anchors which extended into the public roadway were part of the temporary retaining works design and many heritage structures and mature protected trees needed to be preserved as part of the project. The full works were completed 6 weeks ahead of schedule with delivery of the new 88 bed facility and associated landscape and external works ready for use.

]]> This project is a series of 5 new terrace townhouses uniquely designed as a reference to the inner city terrace housing which defines the area, with an excavated basement for parking, set below the 3 storey townhouses. A feature of the structure is the clever use of the concrete dividing walls as deep beams to reduce floor structural depth and maximise floor to ceiling heights. A post tensioned concrete transfer level of the basement was incorporated and rooftop external deck areas are included privately to each of the townhouses.

Transfer structures were largely eliminated at the podium level by early resolution of the column grid and parking layout, offering substantial savings in construction time and money.

The structure of the 102 bed facility comprises post tensioned concrete suspended floors and detailed façade features.

The structure used a post-tensioned concrete frame with flat slabs. Transfers were avoided over the carpark by allowing the carpark grid to continue through the building.
