The challenge
Access to the work area was not practical through the building so external access to the site was established with an external scaffold, stair and using a scissor hoist to lift materials to the third and fourth floors. Window glazing was removed on two levels and temporary doors were fitted. The temporary scaffold structure was shrink wrapped
to provide weather protection. The project was delivered during covid lock downs. By separating site operations from Council staff and the public that visit the building daily, managing the risk of covid infection was made simpler.
