Florence & Capri Complex - Structural Alterations
Premium structural alterations for Wentworth Point residential complex
The Challenge
The Florence & Capri complex required significant structural alterations for interior renovations across multiple units. The occupied high-rise demanded minimal disruption to 200+ residents while maintaining full building services. Access constraints from limited street frontage and strict noise restrictions protecting neighboring luxury developments complicated logistics. The strata committee imposed stringent work hour limitations and required dedicated resident liaison. Timeline pressure came from pre-committed tenant move-in dates, with $180,000+ in rental income at risk if structural alterations delayed the overall renovation schedule.
Our Solution
We developed a comprehensive structural alteration program using advanced temporary shoring systems that maintained building integrity during modifications. Custom steel beam installations transferred loads around new structural openings, allowing safe removal of original load-bearing walls. Precise structural calculations with independent peer review ensured high-rise building standards compliance. Single-day intensive shoring installations minimized disruption while ensuring continuous structural support. Dedicated resident liaison provided weekly updates to strata and affected owners. Noise monitoring verified strict sound level compliance within approved 7AM-5PM windows.
Results
The structural alterations enabled all planned renovations with 100% compliance to high-rise codes and strata approval conditions documented through comprehensive engineering certification. The systematic approach completed within the planned 4-week timeline, protecting $180,000+ in pre-committed rental income. Zero building service disruptions occurred with all 200+ residents maintaining normal access. Noise monitoring confirmed 100% compliance with sound restrictions, eliminating resident complaints. Custom steel beams provided superior structural performance compared to original construction. Renovated unit values increased 20%. The successful project secured preferred contractor status, leading to $300,000+ in follow-on work.
