Patrick Port Botany Redevelopment

“The most satisfying and innovative project has been the Port Botany Container Control Tower, where we constructed the whole structure flat on the ground, then lifted it up in two weeks to 42 metres high, giving savings in access, cranes, scaffold and formwork.

We halved the manpower required and negated falls from height. It produced a spectacular result.

All of these initiatives were encouraged and supported by our construction manager and project manager. We try to share our newly learned expertise with other sites and collect timelapse videos for future use.”
