ISIS re-engineers green engineers
Melbourne’s busy Bourke Street Mall throws up special challenges
for the construction and refit business. As the heart beat of the
CBD’s retail precinct, including two flagship department stores,
access is never easy. This wasn’t the only challenge ISIS had to
overcome. The project team also had to:
- Comply to the letter with Green Star requirements
- Work within ISO14001 standards
- Provide value beyond the partnership
The brief from Lincolne Scott engineers, part of the massive
global engineering group, WSP Group, was to work with their
architects on a refit to achieve two goals. The first to
encourage staff interaction would rest largely on the quality
of the design and the workmanship. The second was to take
sustainability to its limits. To further test the team, the project
had to be completed quickly and without unnecessary disturbance to
Lincolne Scott or its retail neighbours.
