The 308 Exhibition Street project required our team to create a solution for working on an almost finished building. Our team had to create a solution to access without tying into the building. Usually large, weighted beams at this height are specifically for a building demolition - where there is minimal concern for preserving the building's integrity.
At 308 Exhibition Street Tower 2, there were four engineered heavy-duty trusses, which were fabricated in-house at our facility. Our team designed square hollow round section trusses, which were bolted and fabricated at approximately 15 metres in length. The trusses varied in width from 1.2 metres to 2.4 metres and in height from 1.5 metres to 1.8 metres and weighed 7 - 8 tonne.
