Hart was engaged to address a variety of safety and access challenges within the facility’s ceiling space and on the roof. The ceiling space was congested with services and ceiling suspension wires, creating potential trip hazards. In addition, safe and compliant access to roof-mounted plant and equipment was needed to support ongoing maintenance activities.
Aluminium walkways and step bridges were installed within the ceiling space to provide defined access routes and reduce the risk of trips.
To provide safety and access on the roof, stairways, walkways, guardrails and plant platforms were installed. Louvre screens were installed on two sides of the plant platforms to hide HVAC equipment from pedestrian view.
