The site included two multi-storey office buildings, along with cold, freezer, and dry storage facilities, all of which presented unique challenges. The team expertly handled deteriorating office structures and the containment of polystyrene in steel panels by implementing a carefully sequenced methodology.
The team faced challenges associated with deterioration of the office buildings and containment of polystyrene located in the steel panels. Using a carefully sequenced methodology and a novel use of demolished sections of storage sheds to contain the polystyrene and prevent dispersal, the team effectively addressed these issues. The onsite team maintained regular communication with neighbouring businesses impacted by the project, and restricted specific demolition works to days when impacts would be minimised.Â
One key feature of the project was the well timed and clear communications from the project management and onsite team who worked in with local business owners to minimise the impact from demolition works. DEMEX also engaged with the builder appointed by the developer to allow early works for construction to commence in advance of the timeframe nominated in the program. The team achieved a positive result in terms of HSEQ, with no environmental or safety incidents.
