The project included demolition, bulk excavation for a basement level car park and storage areas, construction of class rooms and breakout study areas over three levels, an art studio, library, music room and primary school-age appropriate science labs and food technology rooms.

Construction also included tuckshop relocation, driveway widening, courtyard upgrades, a new multi-use games area and soft landscaping.

Significant waterproofing and underpinning to the basement was required. Each floor was separated by a Bondec concrete slab with structural steel members and core filled brickwork providing the support between floors. The structural complexity came from the underpinning and connection of the new building into the existing music school and hall. The structural steel was fabricated to co-ordinate with complex architectural features and finishes. The external finishes included rough cast render to best match the existing heritage hall building.

The new seven level integrated resort replaces the previous facility and brings together all accommodation and guest amenities. The iconic design is characterised by its distinctive façade and sweeping curves. The stone clad walls to the lower levels were designed to visually ‘anchor’ the building and gives the building immense presence. Separated by a fully glazed central level, the upper levels of hotel rooms appear to float and cantilever over the lower levels. The new five-star resort provides amenities such as new dining options, 25m swimming pool and spa, day spa, function and conference facilities, as well as 120 new hotel rooms. The concrete raft foundations and beams were complex in nature with heavy reinforcement due to the earthquake loadings. The conventionally reinforced concrete basement levels were enclosed by the in-situ reinforced concrete curved and raking concrete walls. Large unsupported spans to accommodate the guest facilities, such as the indoor pool, were addressed with steel box girders, up to 20m in length and 24T in weight.

Qantas Domestic Club & Business Lounge Upgrade, Melbourne Airport www.shape.com.au Woods Bagot Lisbeth Grossman Photographer

The lounges were inspired by Victoria’s landscape, in particular, the Great Ocean Road. The Qantas Club features a turquoise and grey colour palette with natural timber, while the dark tones and sophisticated finishes in the Business Lounge symbolises Melbourne’s dining culture and supper clubs. Key features of the new lounges incorporated bespoke joinery units made from locally sourced products and materials, including the striking buffet tables, marble bars, two commercial kitchens, four bathrooms and nine shower blocks. Taking place airside in the highly secure and fully operational Terminal 1 at Melbourne Airport, co-ordination and communication were the contributing factors to the success of the multi-staged project, resulting in the delivery of a quality space which met the high standards set by the Qantas brand.

Project: Caulfield to Dandenong Level Crossing Removal Project Photographer: Christian Pearson; Misheye Images, Peter Glenane; HiVis Pictures The design consists of an elevated rail line with a consistent architectural expression across the five new station precincts. The stations have an elevated platform with a distinctive canopy which wraps the platform to provide superior weather protection while also framing views across the adjoining suburbs. The plazas provide improved station access and connectivity to the adjacent neighbourhood and other transport modes such as bus, taxi, car and bicycle. The material palette is natural with concrete, timber, zinc and steel — with coloured highlights that reflect each station’s suburban character. Materials were selected to reflect the character of each station’s surrounds. For example, the Noble Park Station canopy features deep green trimmings, part of a colour scheme designed to pay homage to the pottery of famous artist and local identity Arthur Boyd. Each station precinct was conceived as a unique community hub, consisting at ground level of an urban plaza and pod-like structures for information and bike storage. Key architectural elements from the old station buildings have been incorporated into the designs. This includes a heritage-listed waiting shelter which has been salvaged and refurbished by local TAFE students and reincorporated into the Shared User Path at Clayton Station.

EXCELLENCE IN HEALTH AND SAFETY

ADCO CONSTRUCTIONS (VIC) PTY LTD Project: Website: Designer: Photographer:

Caulfield Grammar New Aquatic & Wellbeing Centre, St Kilda East www.adcoconstruct.com.au Irwin Consult Engineering Chris Matterson Photography

Subcontractor coordination was one of the key factors in minimising risk on the Caulfield Grammar project which included a new $25 million state-of-the-art Aquatic and Wellbeing Centre. The site posed many challenges given the location and access restrictions, as well as the live environment, staged works, and works within and around existing structures. Ensuring open lines of communication between ADCO, subcontractors, client and affected stakeholders allowed works to proceed in a sequential fashion to eliminate risk factors, such as high risk construction works, traffic in close proximity to the general public and students, along with high risk works in close proximity to workers around live services and, increased fatigue due to program pressures, all completed within the constraints of the project programme.

Further examples of ADCO’s excellence in health and safety saw their team proactively educate school children regarding hazards and risks on construction sites and the design of a new pool handrail system, which can remain in situ until the entire pool construction is complete.

The previous site building was demolished and basement excavation was carried out to a depth of 14m with significant piling and reinforcement works required for the thin lot shape. The building was constructed with post-tensioned floor slabs with precast concrete vertical elements and interlinking pours across each level. Two different interior schemes were available throughout. The ‘Charred’ and ‘Light’ scheme packages were available with fittings and finishes varying across each package. Many apartments were also extensively customised, particularly on the higher levels where several combination apartments were created due to purchaser demand. The building facade was predominantly constructed using precast panel with brick inlays combined with commercial windows, cement sheeting and aluminium cladding and features. The fully activated rooftop communal area features an oversized chess board and multiple dining areas with barbeque and sink facilities.

The company specialised in medium to large commercial work throughout central Victoria, employing an average of 40 people during his 18 years in business, winning numerous Area and Regional Master Builders Awards.

Chris retired in 2009 but occupies his time maintaining his 12 acre property, producing excellent shiraz wine and olive oil. He continues his active interest in breeding and racing thoroughbreds, visiting many local and international racing venues. With eight grandchildren all living in Victoria, Chris and his wife Lyn are kept busy with family visits to the farm.

Chris has maintained an interest in the building scene assisting the local Grammar school in Bendigo as a building consultant; and has maintained a domestic unlimited and commercial licence and is presently assisting his sonin-law with the setup of his own building company in Melbourne.

He is a carpenter by trade and for approximately 20 years ran his own company specialising in boutique construction and in particular period extensions renovations with a team of between five and 12 carpenters.

Tony spent the next 10 years or so working with both smaller boutique builders and volume builders in the roles of Building Site Manager, Quality Assurance Manager, Warranty Services Manager, Construction Manager, and Metropolitan Building Manager.

Tony spent the following eight years as a building consultant with one of Melbourne’s largest and most respected building consultancies, initially as a consultant and then as senior consultant.

In July 2011, Tony started the consulting practice of Tony Croucher and Associates.

As a Consultant, Tony specialises in domestic construction and is mostly involved in litigation matters before the Courts or VCAT. He regularly appears as an expert witness and has given evidence in all levels of the Courts and VCAT.

A member of Master Builders Association of Victoria since 1970, this was Chris’ eighth year judging the Regional Building Awards.

Shepparton Villages was designed to create a community atmosphere for the residents. To achieve this the building incorporates central courtyards which provide opportunities for natural light to stream into the facility. Each wing has been given a street name and the dining and living areas are large and inviting. The resident’s bedrooms have been specifically designed to feel like home. The considerations of high-care (Dementia) patients are taken into account and this particular wing has been specifically designed to avoid locked doors and enclosed spaces. The external fencing and landscaping were selected to avoid creating an isolated feel.

Catholic College Science Centre, Wodonga www.premierbc.com.au Ken Woodman Simon Dallinger Photography

The project involved the partial demolition of the existing building, and construction and extension of the science centre. The centre was built on a sloping site in the middle of an operational secondary school. The project needed to be handed over in two separable portions, the first part noted as early works enabling the school to have access to one end of the building throughout the construction period. One of the most challenging aspects of the site was the levels from east to west and how to create the building and surrounds in a way that linked the space and a hub for gathering. The scope included using commercial principles, energy saving building practices along with detailed and careful landscaping to integrate the science centre into the school.

The project included the refurbishment to an existing school wing. Removal of asbestos in this area and the internal demolition of timber walls were required. A complete re-design of classroom and learning space areas was undertaken. Major structural steel works were completed to provide a pop up section. This allowed for highlight windows to be installed, and along with skylights, this ensured plenty of natural light to brighten the space. The new colour scheme provides a vibrant learning space and is incorporated into the paintwork, acoustic pin boards and joinery. Acoustic ceiling panels were also installed in the classrooms to provide better noise cancellation.

The project was to complete a new building for the Senior school and refurbish five existing buildings to make them more suitable to the school’s requirements. The senior building was constructed on a conventional slab on ground with steel structure and clerestory windows. It features an open floor plan with most of the classrooms separated from the centre common area by an openable wall, or no wall at all. The remaining five buildings were demolished internally and replaced with timber frame and plaster walls to separate the space. The “Timcon” building proved a challenge as it was found to have a large amount of Class A asbestos under the floor, cotton wiring housed in metal conduit and insufficient structural detailing to support the demolition.

The Bendigo Stadium expansion included new internal courts, including the main show court, and has both fixed and retractable seating housing up to 4000 spectators. The retractable seating banks offer flexibility in the design and space, to create various arrangements suitable for numerous types of local community, Australian and international events. The roofing material was sourced from an international supplier, and due to the complexity of the design, it was measured and rolled on site to suit each section of the roof. Due to the shape of the structure, the roofing had to be installed by abseiling down the curve face in a sequenced fashion. Roofing contractors had to obtain abseiling accreditation prior to the approval of this process.
