A demolition undertaken in the heart of Brisbane’s CBD, 200 Turbot Street involved deconstruction of two adjoining buildings situated on a rock substructure located over a live rail corridor between Roma Street Station and Central Station, the city’s two busiest train stations.
DEMEX was engaged as principal contractor by the site developer, Mirvac. Works included asbestos removal and strip out, mechanical demolition, waste disposal, and rectification of a heritage building originally connected to the dental hospital. As Principal contractor we were responsible for managing nearly 20 subcontractors.
The project, which was completed without any health, safety, or environmental incidents, involved night works; required an innovative methodology for removal of the contaminated ring beam; had challenging security issues; and involved management of multiple subcontractors.
The project was successfully delivered as an all risk contract. This project was also completed as a union project, demonstrating our capacity to meet union site set up and operational requirements.
