Strategies to improve construction outcomes
The existing topography of the site posed a significant engineering challenge. The steep slope, with an overall fall of 30 m, required careful civil design considerations. These included early project phase 3D bulk earthworks design, building floor level design, positioning and interfacing of the buildings to the surrounding topography.
SMEC is looking forward to continuing our partnership with the Willoughby project team in 2021, as final approvals are received, and construction commences.
