Demolition of six dwellings and the construction of a new multi-storey 77-bed aged-care facility
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Total Construction was engaged for the demolition of six dwellings and the construction of a new multi-storey 77-bed aged-care facility.
The new building comprises of three levels: the basement with kitchen, services and storage spaces; the ground and first floors with resident units; and living areas.
Basement construction consists of slab on ground with block-work walls. Ground and first floors are post-tensioned slabs with a metal truss and frame roof structure. External walls are brickwork with feature stone walls.
Works also include a central landscaped area with fountain that provides a feature to the building.
This is our third project with architects, Boffa Robertson Group.
OVERCOMING CHALLENGES
The site is located on the very busy Rocky Point Road so traffic management around the facility, including materials handling, was vital to the smooth running of all construction activities.
INNOVATIONS
The demolition and excavation packages were let as one to eliminate cross-contamination between trades.
