A number of technical challenges emerged from the start of the construction process preparing the site levels in rock, however Metcalfe Constructions managed to find innovative solutions overcoming each problem via collaboration within the project team.
The 1173 square metre facility utilised 200mm concrete block for the exterior walls with external render and feature stacking stone tile on the front façade and end of the building. The surrounds of the building consist of 62 bay concrete car park and naturally landscaped gardens. A key design feature of this build is that it is situated close to the rear boundary line to maximise the site area for building and car parks.
The roof construction was a timber low pitch truss with a BlueScope colorbond roof lining. Scyon Matrix cladding was installed the front awning facades.
Medical tenancy fit outs were started and completed during the construction of the building. These medical fit outs consisted of GP Medical Centre, General Surgeons Practise, Dental Surgery and Pharmacy.
