Mater Hospital Storm Rectification

Mater Hospital Storm Rectification
Brisbane, Qld

In May 2015, Paynter Dixon awarded Kelly Group Package 1 & 2 in roofing contract for the entire Mater Hospital Precinct, Brisbane over $2.3 million. This high-profile project comprised 30 individual buildings plus many associated walkways and awnings, totalling just under 30 000m2.  Work was undertaken over a 16 month period with completion mid-2016. The logistical challenges of this particular job were complex. Work was undertaken on a live environment – a working hospital – above operating theatres and intensive care units and in the vicinity of the helicopter pad in a densely populated public domain with limited access to roofs.  The expertise of our management team ensured continued use of these hospital facilities while work was undertaken. Traffic controls and safety of the general public were primary considerations. To manage and minimise risk, overnight cranage was scheduled to lift product to roofs. Weather conditions were also challenging with inclement storms and very high temperatures impacting work conditions and programs.
