The Sydney University Boatshed is located off Burns Bay at Linley Point. The boatshed structure is bound to the north, south and east by water and to the west by Linley Lane, which forms part of the council recreational parklands. The building is a two-storey training facility, which is the home of elite university rowing students. The lower level deck mainly serves the purpose of boat storage, a maintenance area and boat-launching facility. On the upper level, the athletes utilise the multipurpose room as the main indoor training facility. Facilities include accommodation for full-time staff, kitchen spaces and amenities block. The works comprised the removal of the existing marine structures following the previous facility being destroyed by fire. Difficulties include the inherent issues of building over the water. The structure comprises the Ultrafloor slab system with structural-steel framing for the upper area. Piling was carried out from the water together with the installation of pre-cast headstocks and pre-cast flooring system. This work was done from a barge-mounted crane. A land-based crane (150T) was used for the superstructure erection.  The works also included landscaping on shore, together with access road improvements. The project was well constructed under conditions that required careful planning and execution to ensure environmental compliance and program achievement.
