Safetylyne had the privilege of working on a new $33m retail precinct and $12.5m tavern located in the heart of the Sunshine Coast's fast-growing residential hub. The centre is the community's first entertainment offering and is estimated to service 50,000 Aura residents over the next 20 years. The new town centre complements many other key elements of the Baringa Community Hub which include Baringa State Primary School, sports fields, civic square, skate and scooter plaza, and Council’s community facility. Dealing with many contractors at the site and an aggressive deadline, Safetylyne worked closely with the contract administrator to create an effective plan that minimised risk and delivered a quality custom-built solution.
The client’s requirements included:
- Fast turnaround from shop drawings to install
- Strict adherence to schedule
- High-quality finish to installations, being in a public use area
- Mixed-material balustrade, structurally engineered to withstand crowd loading
- Assistance designing the structural aluminium pergola
Collaboration between the on-site project team and Safetylyne’s in-house experts helped to quickly overcome several challenges that came up during construction. These challenges included engineering a structural aluminium pergola and an architectural balustrade that was made of mixed materials and had a specific crowd-loading requirement.
With the Safetylyne teams’ multifaceted skillset, each product went efficiently from design to installation, while meeting all project specifications and aesthetic standards.
Products supplied on this project included:
- Structural aluminium pergola
- Aluminium-framed balustrade with stainless steel cable infill and timber handrail
From design to installation, the Safetylyne team delivered a quality, value-engineered metalwork solution on schedule and with zero lost-time injuries. The Baringa centre is a perfect example of how each successful project completed increases the valuable experience and knowledge of everyone on the Safetylyne team.
If you’re a contracts administrator that has a fabrication problem, Safetylyne has a solution for you.
