Complex groundworks • from page 6 As each stage is completed, residents will move from their existing apartments to brand new ones, while the former buildings will be progressively demolished. Stage Two of this development starts in October. Andrew expects that CMP Construction will be working on the various stages for around six years and says the project will amply demonstrate the company’s willingness to learn new skills and adaptability in trying circumstances. “We’ve learned a lot on the ground and have had things monitored constantly by consultants to ensure everything meets applicable standards. Perseverance would sum up how we have applied ourselves to this project to achieve a high quality result for the client. This first stage is the most challenging and we expect following stages to be easier – we’ve not only learned a lot but also ground conditions should not be as complex,” he says. CMP Construction was started more than 20 years ago by present managing director Ron Macrae. The company has earned a solid reputation for offering professional, innovative and cost effective

A series of complex retaining walls, rock anchors, drainage problems and the discovery of two underground streams were just some of the challenges for Auckland based CMP Construction on stage one of the Northbridge retirement village project. services for construction and civil works contracts valued from $1 million to $50 million plus. Recent years have seen the company predominate in high quality commercial, industrial and apartment developments throughout New Zealand. CMP Construction has completed a range of projects including hotels, multi-storey apartments and office buildings, warehouses, heritage building refurbishments, internal fitouts and civil works. The company head office is in Auckland where most of the company activity is located, although
projects have been undertaken in other major centres of the country and the Pacific region. The company is currently completing a number of projects including Rose Garden Apartments in Albany and the 10 storey Oasis Apartments in Myers Park, Auckland. The 10-level apartment building sited on Poynton Terrace close to Karangahape Road is nearing completion and features an innovative automated car stacking system for residents’ cars. The system is new to New Zealand and Andrew expects it could help to solve Auckland’s
housing problem by eliminating the need to take up unnecessary space for car parking as well as prove advantageous to developers’ bottom lines. It is just another example of how CMP Construction is ready and able to incorporate new products and technology into builds for the benefit of clients. “This stacker will allow 28 cars to be placed in a space that would usually only fit eight vehicles. “The car owner can push a button from their apartment and when they arrive downstairs their car will be waiting for them ready to drive off, all done automatically. It really is quite amazing.”
