Unilodge Kensington
Project Overview
Unilodge Kensington was a unique student accommodation project requiring precise alignment of brick-patterned feature panels. Situated along Anzac Parade, the project demanded careful planning to manage panel deliveries, site logistics, and urban construction challenges. Prestige Precast successfully installed the panels with accuracy, ensuring a high-quality and durable structure for long-term student housing.
Scope of Work
Prestige Precast was responsible for the installation of precast panels, ensuring they met both structural and aesthetic requirements. This included:
- Positioning and securing brick-patterned feature panels
- Coordinating delivery and installation in a high-traffic urban location
- Aligning panels to achieve a seamless architectural finish
- Ensuring structural stability and compliance with building regulations
Challenges and Solutions
Managing deliveries in a busy urban area
With the site located on a major road, deliveries had to be scheduled carefully to minimize disruptions. The team coordinated closely with local authorities, project managers, and traffic controllers to streamline panel transportation and unloading.
Precision alignment of brick-patterned panels
Unlike standard precast installations, this project required perfect alignment of the textured panels to maintain the architectural design. Using laser-guided measurements and specialized lifting equipment, the team achieved a seamless, uniform finish.
Adhering to safety and compliance standards
Working in a dense urban environment required strict adherence to safety protocols. The team conducted regular site assessments, followed best practices in secure lifting, and ensured all panels were installed in accordance with Australian building codes.
