    In late 2009 Hansen Yuncken, Building Solutions undertook a progressive replacement of the food & beverage outlets within the Adelaide Entertainment Centre. This was done during the later stages of Hansen Yuncken’s major expansion works for the Adelaide Entertainment Centre.

    The existing bars & food outlets were demolished and rebuilt in stages, allowing the venue to continue concerts and product sales during the work. Throughout the project several cost saving measures were initiated by the site team and design details were finalised direct with the Adelaide Entertainment Centre.

    The work involved a full range of commercial catering equipment and was spread over several compact areas of the venue. Construction was successfully completed within the agreed budget and program prior to the whole redevelopment opening in March 2010.

  • National Measurement Institute - Stage 2, VIC

    Client: Department of Innovation, Industry, Science and Research

    Location: Port Melbourne, Victoria

    Value: $2m

    Delivery System: Negotiated

    Contract Time: 3 months

    Completion Date: July 2009 

    This PC2 laboratory fitout project followed on from the success of the initial award winning National Measurement Institute project completed in mid 2008.

    These labs required a temperature tolerance of ±0.3°C in their main Lab and ±0.1°C in their Precision Lab.  To achieve these tight tolerances the airconditioning systems have been designed with very high air change rates of up to 150 air changes per hour.  To assist in the delivery of air into each lab lamina flow Luwa ceiling panels have been installed to reduce the air mixing.  Return air is taken at low level.  An intermediate ceiling level is provided  which contains the light fittings and supply air outlets.  Air is exhausted through the light fittings to minimise the amount of heat from the lights entering the Labs.  The systems are controlled by the site BMS.

    The laboratory is now being used by the government department for the testing and measurement of surfaces, foods and materials for consumer protection and information.
