The photographs show the challenges presented to complete this high level rebuild (level 23!).

 

Task establishment required an engineered application and approach to scaffold access for the works.

 

Access logistics for high level mobile crane and scheduled lift availability for hoisting of materials was reviewed on a daily and sometimes hourly basis.

  • Bead blasting of structural steel and rust preventative paint applications undertaken.

  • Replacement of external party wall framing and lining, painting of same.

  • Waterproofing at veranda slab/wall junctions.
