This project comprised the base building upgrade including electrical supplies and boards, chillers, cooling towers, fire and hydraulic services upgrades. This work had to be completed while the shopping centre maintained a trading environment.
The interior works on level four and six comprised revised entrance, suspended ceiling feature panels, escalator soffits and terrazzo flooring.
Works on level six had to be isolated from the ground floor while the centre continued to trade notwithstanding two large voids connecting the two levels. A large birdcage scaffold was used to span the voids in conjunction with a lightweight scaffold utilizing ladder beams to allow a safe working platform.
Completing the works in a live retail environment required considerable planning to ensure minimal disruption to the public and retailers whilst ensuring their safety.
The quality of completed work was of a high standard.
