Australia - St Helens Park Rotunda Reconstruction Works

Description

St Helens Park is located in the suburb of Prospect. The land of St Helens Park marks the site of the former St Helens House, which was built in 1860. The associated land was purchased by the City of Prospect in 1946.
The Victorian style St Helens Park Rotunda was constructed in circa 1970’s following the demolition of the St Helens House, using elements of the house veranda, including the cast iron balustrade.
The Rotunda, which is identified as a Local Heritage Place (LHP), is currently closed due to its poor and unsafe structural condition. Investigations highlighted severe corrosion in the embedded structural columns located within the cast iron upright posts, along with several other defects.
The objectives of the project are to improve the structural integrity of the Rotunda, restore a design life of 50 years and provide improved accessibility to the facility whilst taking into account the heritage status and character of the existing structure.
 
Note – Mandatory requirement of this RFT - DIT prequalification requirement of GB2 or equivalent relevant experience with similar projects.
