Specialist engineering advice to guide the conservation strategy and ensure the heritage fabric could be preserved while addressing safety and structural performance.
As part of the landmark Rhodes Central development, Billbergia engaged our team to support the delivery of 668 new residential apartments integrated within a vibrant mixed-use precinct. Our role was to provide specialist consulting across building durability and waterproofing services – helping ensure that the project not only met compliance standards but also performed long-term for residents and retailers alike.
Focused On What Matters Most To Our Client…
Confidence in Design Decisions: Through detailed design and compliance reviews, we provided clarity on key risk areas early – helping Billbergia refine construction strategies and avoid rework.
Fully Integrated Advice Across Disciplines: Leveraging our multi-disciplinary expertise, we delivered a holistic consultancy solution that considered how all systems interact – saving time, cost, and the complexity of coordinating multiple consultancies.
Better Buildings, Not Just Code-Compliant Ones: Drawing on our understanding of how buildings perform post-construction, we helped the team make smarter material and detailing choices – resulting in more durable outcomes and fewer long-term maintenance concerns.
Responsive Problem-Solving On Site: We worked closely with the construction team to resolve emerging issues in real time – providing alternative solutions and technical guidance to keep progress on track.
Risk Mitigation Through Quality Assurance: Our involvement in construction QA provided another layer of assurance that the project would meet both regulatory requirements and Billbergia’s internal standards.
The Outcome
Our involvement helped Billbergia deliver a high-quality, future-ready development that reflects the vision of the broader $2 billion Rhodes precinct.
By integrating practical, technical advice with proactive collaboration, we contributed to a project that performs as well as it looks and supports long-term success for both the client and the community it serves.
