Welcome to the August 2024 (mid-winter!) edition of our 

What’s Building newsletter. 

It’s been another eventful period since our last newsletter 

in April with one highlight being the number of projects 

being brought to completion. From St Joseph’s College in 

Echuca, Castray Esplanade Luxury Apartments in Hobart, 

and North Terrace Visitor Accommodation in Burnie, right 

through to the mass timber St Lukes Health building in 

Launceston, just to mention a few. I’ve said this previously, 

but what really stands out is the level of quality work 

we’re producing on our projects – it’s second to none. 

I’d like to recognise the efforts of everyone who played a 

role in bringing our recent wave of high-quality projects 

to completion, we can all be very proud of what we’re 

achieving. 

The standout of these projects is St Lukes Health. I’d like 

to highlight the efforts and contribution of the entire 

team who have brought this building to completion. It’s 

been a significant undertaking in delivering Tasmania’s 

first mass timber-constructed building. The initial Early 

Contractor Involvement phase of the project was a great 

example of how we can use the vast experience that 

exists within the company to our advantage. The St Lukes 

project team tapped into the key learnings from our 

team involved in delivering the mass timber Galkangu 

Bendigo Govhub project, which proved to be of great 

benefit. Now, after around 25 months from commencing 

Early Contractor Involvement, the building was officially 

opened on Monday 22 July. This follows a massive push 

from the everyone on-site who gave their heart and soul 

to complete this fantastic, high-quality facility for a highly 

valued client – well done to all involved. 

As you’d be aware, we’ve just seen the end of one 

financial year, and another has begun. We have once again 

updated our Strategic Plan and our suite of Divisional 

Operation Plans for the year ahead. These plans are 

From the 

CEO’S DESK 

shaped to meet our 

upcoming operational 

needs and are 

supported by the 

positive momentum 

we’ve created across 

both Victoria and 

Tasmania. 

It is definitely an 

exciting time for 

the company as 

we continue with 

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER 

KURT ARNOLD 

a number of key strategic initiatives. Having achieved 

a significant milestone early this year, expanding our 

Victorian footprint through the Northwest Melbourne 

office, we will continue to focus on building our new 

team’s capability to bed roots in the region and service 

other regions in Victoria. 

After spending the past 18 months in the design and 

approvals phase, the major redevelopment of our 

Devonport facility at 12 Stony Rise Road is very close 

to commencing. This project will provide significant 

improvement to the office amenity of our 50+ officebased 

staff across Northwest Construction, Admin, 

Developments, Facility Management, and Joinery. It will 

also significantly enhance Joinery’s operational capabilities 

and support our growth well into the future. 

The redevelopment will include a 100kw solar array 

that’s aimed to generate daytime energy for immediate 

use, minimising our demand on the energy grid. We are 

also implementing two electric vehicle (EV) pool cars 

into our fleet – one in Bendigo and one in Devonport. 

Both of these initiatives align with our commitment to 

sustainability and reducing our environmental footprint, 

while also providing our team with efficient and ecofriendly 

transport. 

Another notable achievement, on Friday 28th June the 

Master Builders Victoria Regional Awards were held, and 

our quality work resulted in collecting two project awards. 

California Gully Primary School, located in Bendigo won 

Excellence in Construction of Commercial Buildings in the 

category of $3m-$6m. While our Poa Banyul (Armstrong 

Creek Community Centre) project in Geelong won Best 

Sustainable Project. Congratulations to all our employees, 

subcontractors and consultants involved these two 

excellent projects. 

Since our last newsletter, Dave Parker from our Northwest 

Construction division has hit a significant milestone in 

achieving 35 Years of Service. Dave is a highly respected 

and valued Site Manager who has always contributed 

100%. Dave becomes our 6th employee to hit this 

milestone in our 52 year history – nice work Dave! Also, 

we have welcomed another new member to our 25 Year 

Club: the ever-reliable Craig Saville, Senior Estimator from 

Southern Construction who has reached this significant 

milestone – well done Sav! Also achieving a notable 

milestone is Phil De Jong, Manager of our Southern 

Construction division, who has accumulated 15 years of 

service. Congratulations to the three of you, and we look 

forward to many more years ahead!

Healthiest Island on the Planet 

ST LUKES HEALTH 

The St Lukes Health building in Launceston is the 

largest mass timber construction project ever 

completed in Tasmania. Constructed with the vision 

for a fit-for-purpose office space to bring together St 

Lukes’ workforce, the building is a new icon to the 

City of Launceston’s cityscape. The 30-metre, sevenstorey 

building sets a benchmark for sustainable 

business practices in the region and illustrates the 

growing trend for environmental consideration in 

commercial construction. The building’s design 

repurposes existing heritage warehouses, integrating 

original timber trusses with modern mass timber 

construction. This approach not only enhances 

sustainability but also pays homage to the area’s 

industrial past. 

The new head office stands out for the innovative 

construction techniques, which are so unique within 

the Australian market that clear NCC guidance or an 

Australian Standard is yet to be established for this 

type of build. Fairbrother’s prior experience in mass 

timber through projects such as Galkangu in Bendigo 

provided additional confidence and understanding of 

the processes involved in taking a salient project like 

St Lukes Launceston to completion. 

“The project was always one that we targeted, given 

it is the largest mass timber building in Tasmania, 

and one of the larger in the country,” said Fairbrother 

General Manager – Northern Tasmania, Marcus 

Perkins. “We want to be at the forefront of that 

specialist industry.” 

The choice of mass timber was a visionary one as 

much as a practical decision, with the client, St Lukes 

Health, seeking to provide a centralised hub for their 

workforce who, previously, had been dispersed across 

four separate locations in Launceston. 

“We wanted this building to be nothing short of 

extraordinary: visually stunning, with world-leading 

sustainability credentials, using Tasmanian materials 

and building local skills,” said St Lukes project director 

and board member, Martin Rees. “The project was an 

investment both in the health of Tasmanians, and the 

environment.” 

The use of glue-laminated timber (GLT) and crosslaminated 

timber (CLT) are both significant in the 

construction of a project like St Lukes. 

“The whole structure uses GLT and CLT in its makeup,” 

said Fairbrother Project Manager, Jake Herbert. 

“Those elements have been used in other buildings 

around Tasmania, but certainly this is the first multistorey 

building in the state where you’re actually 

reliant on the timber for total structure, including 

floors, and walls.” 


St Lukes Health (continued) 

Prefabricated GLT and CLT components provided an 

opportunity for construction that outpaced more 

traditional concrete and steel multi-storey projects. 

Positive comments about the building rising at a rate of 

close to one level per week were received from the client 

throughout the construction of the building. 

Whilst the initial desire was to use Tasmanian timbers and 

products for as much of the building as possible, the new 

nature of building a mass timber construction of this scale 

was something that required a wider look. 

“We approached CUSP, based in Wynyard, to do all the 

CLT for the building, but their capacity is still growing,” 

explained Marcus. “We wanted them to supply as much 

as they could, so they ended up supplying the CLT for the 

level 7 floorplate.” 

CUSP’s involvement provided a significant innovation in 

Tasmanian timbers through the use of Eucalyptus nitens. 

The rapid-growing Tasmanian plantation species, typically 

used for woodchips, has demonstrated its worth to highervalue 

applications such as CLT. The material’s performance 

in the project has proven its viability for future mass 

timber constructions in Tasmania and beyond. 

Sourcing the remainder of the timber materials for the 

build was a key logistical challenge in the planning and 

procurement stage. The balance of the CLT floor panels 

were manufactured from radiata pine, and sourced from 

XLAM in Victoria. The GLT components were shipped from 

HESS in Austria, where mass timber building is far more 

prevalent than in Australia. 

“All the GLT for the entire job fit into 12 40-foot shipping 

containers,” said Jake. “Basically, we got two containers 

a fortnight once the first container turned up. One of the 

things that we picked up from the Victorian guys was to 

make sure we had an off-site facility for these to arrive so 

that you can load it onto a truck and then bring it in as you 

need.” 

Another significant challenge was meeting the fire safety 

requirements for mass timber buildings. Collaboration 

with fire engineers ensured that the building met the 

necessary safety standards without compromising 

the design. The timber’s inherent fire resistance was 

augmented with strategic fire safety measures, ensuring 

the building’s integrity and safety. 

“The challenge is, under the national construction code, 

there’s no deemed-to-satisfy provision for mass timber,” 

said Marcus. “You have to get a fire engineer on board to 

determine what your requirements are.” 

Acoustic performance was another area of focus. “Timber 

doesn’t perform that well acoustically compared to 

concrete, which is very dense. To address this, we installed 

raised floors with rubber backing to stop footfall transfer 

and enhance acoustic performance,” said Marcus. 

With a lack of any universal Australian standards for mass 

timber construction, the project team relied on European 

standards and codes, as well as collaboration with their 

Victorian counterparts to ensure that the project met or 

exceeded quality and safety needs. 

“There was actually a timber designer from Europe who 

was involved in the process,” said Jake. “Given the lack of 

standards or codes around this in Australia, realistically 

it was a no-brainer to engage someone with the added 

familiarity.” 

“The next revision of the national construction code will 

hopefully cover more about the use of mass timber,” 

said Marcus. “An Australian standard will be beneficial to 

provide clear guidelines and facilitate more widespread 

adoption of mass timber as a sustainable construction 

method.” 

Fairbrother’s approach to this project demonstrates 

a commitment to innovation and sustainability. The 

collaboration with local and international partners, 

combined with the use of advanced timber technology, 

has resulted in a building that not only meets the practical 

needs of the client, but also sets a new standard for 

sustainable construction in Tasmania. 

The building contains office space for St Lukes Health staff 

to now have a location that brings everyone together 

for a more efficient and collaborative workspace. It goes 

beyond being an office, with the ground floor being 

dedicated as a wellness hub where the community can 

access a range of initiatives, including a St Lukes customer 

care centre, the organisation’s first dental practice, a cafe, 

and playground. 

“We wanted our home to be a built manifestation of 

our vision to make Tasmania the healthiest island on the 

planet,” said St Lukes Chief Executive Officer, Paul Lupo. 

“We wanted the very space itself to be a motivating force 

that brings people together to build connections, learn 

ways to improve their health and wellbeing, and feel 

supported to take action.” 

By leveraging the benefits of mass timber and showcasing 

innovative design and construction practices, Fairbrother 

and its partners have created a building that not only 

meets the practical needs of St Lukes Health but also 

embodies their vision for a healthier and more sustainable 

future. This project serves as a model for future 

developments, demonstrating that with the right vision 

and collaboration, sustainable construction can be both 

practical and inspiring.

Community Development 

LETITIA STREET HOUSING 

Built for Centacare Evolve, the Letitia Street social housing 

project is a landmark development in the heart of Hobart. 

This 29-unit project demonstrates the healthy partnership 

between Centacare Evolve and Fairbrother, achieving a 

positive financial outcome for the client and solidifying 

strong relationships. 

The design and construct delivery model, alongside 

a collaborative approach between client and builder, 

enabled the project to be delivered five months ahead 

of schedule. The exterior design of the building draws 

inspiration from the traditional Hobart workers’ cottage, 

with contemporary materials enhancing its modern 

aesthetic. The steep-pitched roofs combined with 

monotone custom brickwork, textured precast elements, 

and vertical nailstrip cladding create a striking façade. This 

mix of materials is perfectly complemented by the vibrant 

green balustrading, adding a touch of colour and character 

to the complex. 

Accessibility was a key consideration throughout the 

design phase, resulting in the project achieving a Silver 

Standard in Liveable Housing Design. This includes 

features such as step-free paths of travel to each dwelling, 

step-free showers, future-proofed bathrooms to support 

the installation of grab rails, and unimpeded paths of 

travel throughout internal doors and corridors. The 

building also offers dual pedestrian access from both 

street frontages, a central lift for enhanced accessibility, 

large private open spaces, and communal social gathering 

areas. 

Fairbrother’s Design Management team played a crucial 

role in navigating the site constraints, including the 

redesign of multiple precast concrete panels, to allow 

manoeuvrability around the overhead powerlines and 

other restrictions. These redesigns enabled efficient 

delivery and installation, contributing to the project’s 

timely completion. 

Limited space on site was a significant challenge, with little 

space available for construction amenities and cranage. 

Solutions to this challenge came through negotiating and 

consultation with the neighbouring property, owned by 

Turnbull Funerals. 

CLIENT: Centacare Evolve Housing 

ARCHITECT: Preston Lane Architects 

PROJECT MANAGER: Adrian Tseberg 

SITE MANAGER: Cameron Byers

“Without leasing Turnbull’s land, it would have made 

everything so much more difficult,” said Fairbrother 

Project Manager, Adrian Tseberg. “We used Turnbull’s car 

park for cranage work and materials staging, which was 

crucial for maintaining smooth operations and minimising 

disruptions.” 

The Letitia Street project showcases Fairbrother’s 

commitment to delivering high-quality social housing that 

exceeds expectations. The use of custom-made white 

bricks instead of painted surfaces not only enhances 

the building’s appearance but also reduces long-term 

maintenance. Internally, the units are designed to provide 

a comfortable living environment, with high-quality 

flooring, clean joinery, and thoughtful colour schemes 

creating a welcoming atmosphere. 

Fairbrother’s ability to complete the project ahead 

of schedule can be attributed to meticulous planning 

and seamless coordination among the project team, 

Centacare, and consultants. The minimal extensions of 

time and cost-effective design adjustments ensured the 

project stayed on track and within budget. 

The Letitia Street project has been met with enthusiastic 

approval from the client and the local community. 

“Everyone I’ve spoken to about the project is ecstatic,” 

Adrian noted. “The high-quality design and construction 

have garnered positive feedback from the client, people 

walking down the street, and even a guy I was speaking to 

at Bunnings.” 

Fairbrother’s success with the Letitia Street project 

highlights the project team’s dedication to excellence 

in construction and community development. As 

social housing continues to be a critical need in many 

communities, projects like Letitia Street serve as a model 

for how to effectively balance functionality, aesthetics, 

and budget considerations. Fairbrother’s approach to 

this development showcases the importance of thorough 

planning, community engagement, and adaptability in 

achieving successful outcomes. By prioritising quality and 

resident satisfaction, Fairbrother has created a housing 

solution that not only meets immediate needs but also 

supports long-term community development goals. 



Building the Team in 

VICTORIA 

GENERAL MANAGER 

VICTORIA 

MICHAEL JOSEY 

It’s hard to believe that 

we’re already in August. It 

feels like the year has been 

unusually cold, but perhaps 

that’s just me showing my 

age. 

The last few months have 

seen a sharp focus on 

recruitment, with some nine 

new employees joining the 

Victorian team in recent 

times. This has been driven by the shaping of our new 

Estimating Team in the Melbourne office, which gives us a 

strong foundation to improve our tender processes. 

The team is being led by Jay Lee, supported by Mehran 

Mohiuddin as senior estimator, along with Tim Farrow, 

Isaac Yang, as well as second-year Graduate, Cooper 

Roberts whose interest in this field has seen him roll up his 

sleeves to learn the tendering process. We’ve also brought 

on Marija Kocovska who, in the role of Bid Coordinator, 

will ensure our tender presentations and materials are at 

the forefront of the industry. 

Welcome to everyone who has joined the team! I’m 

excited to see what the future holds in Victoria. 

On the project front, we have seen Bendigo Foodshare 

reach practical completion, and was recently handed over. 

We’ve been so humbled by the contributions and support 

of the local construction industry and community to see 

this project reach a successful outcome. 

a2 Milk has had its challenges, but we are nearing 

completion of the works that will allow specialist 

contractors to commence fit out that will allow a2 Milk to 

significantly increase its operational capacity. 

The Parkville Youth Justice project is with a repeat 

client where we are completing hardening works of this 

facility. Works are progressing well and expected to reach 

completion ahead of what was initially anticipated. 

The Werribee Open Range Zoo project is well advanced. 

The elephant pools are complete, the visitor experience 

centre is progressing well, and the herd barn is well into 

final fit out, with the bull barn now commencing. 

Maryborough Hospital Redevelopment is up and cracking. 

From commencing work on this project only 12 months 

ago, the structure is complete, and the façade is almost 

there as well. Our completion date is early 2025, but we’re 

pushing on to try and finish stage 1 before the Christmas 

break. 

Poa Bunyal Community Hub 

Geelong Region 

Victorian Team Celebrating at 

the Master Builders Victoria 

Regional Awards 

We have recently mobilised for a small refurbishment 

project at Latrobe University’s Bendigo campus. It’s great 

to be back here to work on this project for another repeat 

client. 

Finally on the project front is the Notre Dame College 

Wellbeing Centre. This build has faced its own challenges 

progressing through demolition and civil works, and 

weather has hindered the progress. We have recently 

poured the first ground slab, though, and are really 

looking to gather some momentum soon. 

On 28 June, we attended the Western Regional Master 

Builders of Victoria Excellence in Construction Awards, 

where we received two awards. Congratulations to 

everyone! 

First was the Excellence in Construction of Commercial 

Buildings $3m-$6m for California Gully Primary School. 

Delivered by Matt Ginnivan and Tim Hurford as Project 

Manager and Site Manager respectively, the vast majority 

of this job was completed by our own carpenters, making 

this award particularly gratifying. 

Meanwhile Poa Bunyal (Armstrong Creek Community 

Centre) was awarded for Best Sustainable Project. 

Rohan Eves, Tom Woodman, Lyndley McClelland, Angus 

Hamilton, John Ellis, and Jarrod Page all should be noted 

for their contributions to this great project that achieved a 

5-star Greenstar initiative. 

Lastly, it would be remiss of me not to mention Aaron 

Finnigan whose great work has seen him nominated for 

the Young Builder of the Year award for Master Builders 

Victoria. This is a prestigious award and Aaron is welldeserving 

of the nomination. 

With a huge effort in seeking out new business 

opportunities, I’m confident that we’ll see some exciting 

new projects on the cards in the coming months to share 

with you in December. 

Until then: Go the Blues! 



Fairbrother has successfully completed the Stage 2 works 

at St Joseph’s College in Echuca, marking a significant 

milestone in the expansion of this historic school. The 

project, driven by ongoing growth in student population, 

involved the construction of two new buildings and was 

completed on budget and on schedule. The development 

highlights Fairbrother’s commitment to quality and 

efficacy in educational infrastructure, ensuring that the 

school can accommodate its growing number of students. 

The new buildings at St Joseph’s College, designed by 

ClarkeHopkinsClarke, include general learning spaces, 

arts and science rooms equipped with a kiln and fume 

cabinet, a canteen, a food technology classroom, and 

unique features such as an aquarium and terrarium. These 

facilities are set to enhance the educational experience for 

the growing school community, providing state-of-the-art 

resources for students and staff. 

One of the key challenges faced during the construction 

was the reactive ground conditions, which required a 

careful approach to the foundations and external paving. 

Fairbrother worked closely with structural and civil 

engineers to design suitable solutions for these conditions. 

In addition, seismic design and construction codes needed 

to be met to ensure the safety and durability of the new 

buildings. Works on the building structure and fabric 

to achieve these codes included internal and external 

structural timber walls, ceiling grid framing, framing for 

external soffits and bracing of services. 

The project also involved extensive waterproof testing 

of the building façade, which included testing glazed 

windows and doors, compressed fibre cement sheeting, 

Expanding Education 

ST JOSEPH’S 

brick veneer, and skylights. This rigorous testing was 

crucial in ensuring the quality and longevity of the new 

facilities. Fairbrother’s team demonstrated exceptional 

adaptability and problem-solving skills throughout the 

project. Innovation was evident in the use of feature OSB 

board, which required fireproofing with an intumescent 

coating to fulfill Group 1 building product certification 

requirements. 

Fairbrother’s own carpenters handled the internal and 

external timber wall framing, the fit-out detailing, and the 

external concrete paving, which received high praise from 

the client for its quality. 

“The client expressed how well our guys delivered the 

external concrete paving, and the architect was extremely 

happy with our quality,” said Fairbrother Project Manager, 

Rick Carson. 

Another challenge faced during the project was market 

confidence, particularly in the wake of the pandemic. 

“The construction industry wasn’t overly healthy at the 

time,” said Rick. “We hadn’t worked in Echuca for a while, 

so the suppliers and sub-contractors wanted to feel a bit 

more market confidence.” 

To provide this confidence, and support the local market 

of businesses emerging from the pandemic, Fairbrother 

employed a strategy of splitting work packages among 

multiple local subcontractors. Noting the struggle to find 

a concrete contractor with the capability at the time to 

do both buildings, Rick explained altering the plan to 

engage a local contractor to do the larger building while 

Fairbrother undertook the smaller building. 

“This flexibility ensured we had enough resources, and 

kept the project on track,” Rick reflected. “It helped with 

the program constraints, too, allowing us to build both 

buildings concurrently.” 

This method was applied to other major components as 

well. For instance, the structural steel work was divided 

between two contractors, allowing for simultaneous 

progress on both buildings. 

“By splitting the steel package, we ensured that 

both buildings progressed without delays,” said Rick. 

“This approach not only provided reassurance to the 

subcontractors but also maintained the high standards 

expected by the client.” 

Supporting local subcontractors and suppliers was a 

key aspect of Fairbrother’s approach. Rick highlighted 

the importance of boosting confidence among these 

businesses: “Coming out of the pandemic, a lot of 

subcontractors were hesitant and needed reassurance. 

By giving them manageable portions of the project, we 

helped build their confidence in their own operations and 

contributed to the local market’s recovery.” 

A tight program placed pressure on the project from the 

beginning, requiring strong collaboration and detailed 

planning to ensure successful delivery of the project on 

time and budget. 

“Credit to all the site guys, they were just focused on 

getting it done, and we got it done on time. It was a really 

good result,” said Rick. 

The completion of this project is not just a construction 

milestone but also a reflection of the school’s growth and 

evolution. The new campus will cater to the increasing 

student population in Echuca, with future plans for 

additional buildings as funding and growth continue. 

The new facilities at St Joseph’s College also include 

culturally significant design elements, such as a yarning 

circle and motifs resonating with the Murray River and the 

local indigenous heritage. These features, integrated into 

the building’s design, emphasise the school’s commitment 

to celebrating and incorporating local culture and history 

into its educational environment. 

Fairbrother’s successful completion of the Stage 2 works 

at St Joseph’s College underscores their expertise in 

handling complex projects and dedication to delivering 

high-quality educational facilities. This project not only 

enhances the learning environment for students but also 

sets a benchmark for future developments in the region.

Future Opportunities in 

NORTHERN TASMANIA 


NORTHERN TASMANIA 

MARCUS PERKINS 

2024 seems to be 

slipping past as fast 

as ever, with strong 

workloads having 

been seen in Joinery, 

Construction Northwest 

and Construction North. 

For the first time in 

around three years, 

we have observed a 

clear slowing of the 

commercial construction 

market across the whole North of the state. This has 

been expected and even welcomed to some extent, given 

how overstimulated the market has been in recent years. 

Thankfully, there remains plenty of opportunities in all 

regions for future work, on top of what is already secured. 

A major personnel milestone was achieved with Dave 

Parker clocking up 35 years of services in April. Dave has 

been one of our most reliable site managers for a long 

period of time and is a highly valued member of the 

Northwest Construction team. 

On the recruitment front, Greg Cornelious has 

commenced with us in July, as an Estimator in Northwest 

Tasmania. 

Construction Northwest has maintained a broad 

range of projects with the Mersey Community Hospital 

Outpatients Clinic and Operating Theatres, Northwest 

Regional Hospital Mechanical Upgrades, William Adams 

Burnie, Botanical Resources pavements, Marist Regional 

College and SRT Pavements. Outside these projects, we 

successfully achieved practical completion on the North 

Terrace accommodation project in Burnie, which is a 

fantastic outcome. 

Years of 

SERVICE 

The Mersey Community Hospital Outpatients Clinic and 

Operating Theatres has been a hive of activity getting 

ready for the handover of C Block, the Central Core and 

E Block in July, which was successfully achieved. This is 

the largest stage of works now complete, with the team 

moving into D block for the remainder of the year. 

Northwest Regional Hospital Mechanical Upgrades are 

now in full swing, with multiple stages underway. The new 

major mechanical plant structure is well advanced and the 

Brad Symmons and Marcus 

Perkins acknowledging David 

Parker’s 35 years of service 

mechanical plant to reside on the structure is expected 

to arrive soon. This is a complex project that requires 

close coordination with the hospital team and our key 

subcontractors to ensure a smooth, consistent critical 

service delivery. 

Marist Regional College has seen the completion of the 

temporary MDT shed and associated civil works. We have 

also secured the next stage of the project, being the MDT 

Redevelopment, which will commence in early August.

Construction North has again been focused on project 

delivery, with the Anne O’Byrne demolition project now 

complete. We are also now completely finished at St Lukes 

Health following the major base build contract and three 

separate fit out packages. On the new project front, we 

have secured the Launceston Tennis Centre and Scotch 

Oakburn College’s Elphin Inquiry & Environmental Centre. 

UTAS Willis Street is nearing completion, with the internal 

aspects of the building seeing final commissioning, 

cleaning and defecting. Externally, works are ongoing with 

civil and landscaping scope well advanced. The Boland 

Street Pedestrian Bridge completion is also imminent, with 

final metalwork items being resolved. 

The Launceston Tennis Centre established site access at 

the end of May and has commenced ground works and 

piling. This is a fast-paced project that will be completed 

by Christmas. 

Our Joinery division has continued to remain busy, with 

the major projects being UTAS Willis Street, St Lukes 

Health and Brighton High School. We have also seen 

the completion of the Mersey Community Hospital 

Outpatients Clinic and Operating Theatres, as well as a 

range of other smaller projects. 

The Maryborough Hospital Redevelopment is now 

ramping up in the workshop for the Central Victorian 

team. Prototypes units have been installed, detailed 

site measures undertaken, and manufacturing has 

commenced.

and a significant development aimed at boosting the 

region’s accommodation options. This project, set to 

officially open in September 2024, adds a new landmark 

to Burnie’s landscape and enhances the city’s appeal 

to both leisure and business travellers. It was built by 

the Construction Northwest team and adds a significant 

feature to the portfolio of work completed through the 

Fairbrother Developments business unit. 

To support bringing this project to life, Fairbrother 

has combined forces with long term and highly valued 

business partner, Elphinstone. Underpinning this 

development project is a 50/50 partnership between both 

businesses who are fulfilling a shared vision to bring this 

fantastic new accommodation facility to fruition. 

The new hotel offers 30 rooms with sea views and modern 

amenities such as advanced TV casting, high-speed Wi-Fi, 

and on-site parking. The design, featuring extensive use 

of glass, precast elements, and vibrant colours, provides 

a modern and welcoming environment for guests. The 

accommodation levels are strategically elevated to provide 

expansive ocean views, enhancing the overall guest 

experience. The construction of One North Terrace did, 

however, face significant challenges, particularly due to 

the COVID-19 pandemic, which significantly increased 

initial build cost estimates. The original build budget 

increased some 35%, necessitating a complete redesign 

and value management process. 

“We had to bring costs down without compromising the 

design intent,” said Fairbrother Developments Manager, 

Darryn Smith. “There were a few different iterations that 

we went through to refine the structure, but the original 

design intent has been preserved.” 

Despite the challenges, the original architectural vision by 

ARTAS Architects remained largely intact. 

Technical challenges also arose due to the site’s basalt 

foundation and seismic standards. These challenges were 

managed effectively, resulting in a robust and resilient 

structure. 

“We had to ensure compliance with seismic standards, 

which added complexity and cost to the project,” said 

Darryn. “In recent years there’s been changes to the 

requirements for multi-level buildings and how you treat 

those from a seismic perspective.” 

The seismic requirements on the project were managed 

through a variety of innovative solutions and problem 

solving. A solid basalt foundation provided secure footings 

at a relatively shallow depth, in some cases requiring 

bespoke pad footing dimensions to meet the necessary 

standards. 

The hotel’s operational model initially includes a staffed 

reception to provide a personalised guest experience, 

with the option to move to a more automated, contactless 

check-in system in the future. 

“The facility is set up to be contactless, but we believe it’s 

important to offer face-to-face contact initially,” Darryn 

explained. “We do also understand that being able to 

‘sweep in’ and ‘sweep out’ works for a lot of business 

travellers who may need to arrive late or depart early.” 

Fairbrother Developments plays a key role in the 

company’s long-term growth strategy. In expanding on 

the company’s land holdings and adding a steady stream 

of construction projects. “Ensuring that a portion of our 

turnover is generated through in-house developments 

supports our viability and allows us to maintain control 

over our projects from inception to completion,” Darryn 

said. 

The One North Terrace site, which Fairbrother has held 

since the mid-2000s, initially served as a car park, and 

was the remaining parcel of land surplus to the earlier Bay 

Renaissance and Columnar Court developments. Various 

development options were explored over the years, with 

the decision for the hotel being made in 2020. 

With the successful completion of One North Terrace, 

Fairbrother continues to demonstrate its ability to 

deliver high-quality construction projects. This new 

hotel is characteristic of the company’s expertise and 

strategic vision, providing a valuable addition to Burnie’s 

accommodation landscape. 



Operational Planning in 

SOUTHERN TASMANIA 

Sullivans Cove Distillery 


Since our last Newsletter, all divisions have been active 

in Operational Planning for the new financial year. It is 

always important to reflect on what we have achieved, 

what we have done well, and what we could improve on; 

having a solid plan is the key ingredient to measure our 

performance by for the next period. This process includes 

seeking input and feedback from our management teams 

to drive this direction. 

A similar theme continues for both business units, with 

Facility Management’s run to the end of June being 

exceptionally busy. Meanwhile in Construction South, 

the gaps created with larger projects finishing have been 

replaced with smaller infills while waiting for larger ones 

to gather momentum. 

On the project front in Construction South, we have 

reached practical completion on Castray Luxury 

Apartments, Sullivan’s Cove Distillery cellar door, Glenson 

Place independent living facility for those with mental 

illness and Letitia Street social housing for Homes 

Tasmania and Centacare Evolve. 

Glenson Place 


We are currently undertaking three warehouse 

developments, two of which are located in Cherokee 

Drive, Cambridge. One is for RCCC civil company and the 

other for Fairbrother Developments. The third and final 

warehouse is being constructed for Elite Appliances at 

Bathurst Street in the CBD. 

To continue our trend of education work, we have 

secured a project at Lauderdale Primary School, which 

is a combination of refurbishment, new buildings and 

extensive landscaping works. Sorell School at the time of 

going to publication will be finally completed after 3 ½ 

years. A job of this duration can certainly test everyone’s 

endurance, but the final result is an outstanding facility 

that will significantly enhance educational outcomes 

in this area. A big 

thank you to all those 

employees involved in 

the successful delivery 

of this project. Finally, 

the Brighton High 

School continues to 

hit all of its targets 

and is tracking ahead 

of program; it will be 

ready for students to 

commence in 2025.

PAUL RANSLEY 

Other projects 

to commence are the Queens Walk Social Housing 

development for Housing Choices. A new carpark for 

existing residents is complete, with Building E (38 

apartments) currently installing CFA piles and bulk 

excavation for Building F (27 apartments) underway. 

Building cores will be installed over the coming weeks. 

Savage Industries is the new tenant for the old Roberts 

building at 2 Collins Street. Stage 1 works include internal 

demolition and window replacement for the existing 

refurbished building. We are currently pricing the Stage 

2 works. We are also completing major renovations 

at Mures seafood restaurant at Victoria Dock on the 

waterfront – works include new main entrance to 

the upper deck, new private dining room, upper deck 

restaurant and kitchen refurbishment and the brand-new 

Kelp Bar. All these works are occurring while the premises 

continues to operate, so the site team are working around 

the clock to ensure this is achievable. 

The Hutchins School – Edwards Hub project is still being 

delayed while an archaeological team conclude their 

works, we hope to resume in late August. SISU Winery at 

Campania is progressing along nicely with the ground floor 

and suspended slabs now being poured. Structural steel 

will then commence along with the external pavement 

areas. 

In relation to Facility Management, it has been an 

outstanding period, with over $2.5m worth of works 

completed during June. These works have been all over 

the state, with Tas Networks having projects from St 

Mary’s to Huonville and Campbell Town plus the various 

local councils – Devonport, Launceston, Hobart, Clarence, 

Kingborough and Glenorchy. The recent heavy rainfalls 

have increased our workload relating to insurance 

claims. Finally, our long-term contract with Risdon Prison 

Maintenance was further extended until August 2025. 



The Prestige 

CASTRAY ESPLANADE 

“The biggest challenge to the pool was detailing the 

waterproofing,” said Darryn. “Bounding two separate 

residential areas, and an office area, the solution was 

critical. This resulted in a project-specific specification 

be pulled together from the manufacturer. We then had 

a rigid process for monitoring the waterproofing install, 

including a fill test before we started tiling to be sure that 

it wasn’t going to leak.” 

Also of note in this project are the feature bricks used for 

their unique contribution to the building’s aesthetic and 

historical narrative. These bricks, sourced from a specific 

clay quarry in Spain, underwent a meticulous glazing 

process in Italy, ensuring no two bricks were the same 

colour. The choice of these bricks, designed to emulate 

the ripples of the ocean, not only enhances the nautical 

theme of ‘The Finish Line’ but also serves as a nod to the 

building’s maritime location and the significance of the 

Sydney to Hobart yacht race. 

“There is no other brick in the world that will look like 

those on this project,” said Darryn. “Of an evening when 

the light is low, that wall looks like the changing nature of 

a blue ocean.” 

Managing the heritage aspects of the existing structure 

presented its own set of challenges, particularly with 

the demolition process required to make way for new 

construction while preserving the building’s façade. 

One way to ensure the preservation of the building’s life 

journey was the reuse of existing materials where it was 

achievable. This included the level 2 office batten wall, 

made from the existing hardwood floor joists that were 

sanded and de-nailed by hand before being reintroduced 

into the building as a feature. This was a substantial and 

difficult task requiring involvement of the whole project 

team. 

“We were consistently trying to find opportunities to 

reintroduce products back into the building,” said Darryn. 

“So, the level two office batten wall became one of those 

opportunities.” 

As with any project, this had its challenges, from the 

integration of modern construction techniques within a 

heritage context to the coordination of high-end finishes 

and services within constrained spaces; however, ‘The 

Finish Line’ stands as a prime example of Fairbrother’s 

expertise in managing complex heritage projects, the 

ability to innovate within the constraints of historical 

preservation, and a commitment to delivering high-quality 

results. 

Nestled at the edge of Hobart’s bustling waterfront, ‘The 

Finish Line’ luxury apartments emerges as a refined blend 

of heritage and modern luxury, creating a narrative of 

Hobart’s past, present, and future. Seamlessly woven 

into the fabric of the Castray Esplanade and looking 

out directly across the ending of the famed Sydney to 

Hobart yacht race, ‘The Finish Line’ encapsulates a blend 

of heritage preservation with modern architectural 

innovation. 

The original building had been constructed more than 100 

years ago, operating as a fruit processing facility for the 

Huon Juice Company, before transforming through very 

different applications, including office space most recently. 

After a long and varied life, Fairbrother’s team was tasked 

with transforming it into a modern marvel without erasing 

the rich industrial heritage. 

“There was no documentation at all on the existing 

building anywhere. Consultants had minimal records of 

the existing structure, so we had no idea what was behind 

any of the fabric. Our first task, therefore, was to strip 

the building back to its bare bones and see what we were 

working with,” explained Darryn Purcell, Project Manager 

for Fairbrother. 

The process of renovation, therefore, required meticulous 

planning and execution. A significant challenge was the 

consideration of the existing, and unpredictable nature 

of the building, while integrating the client’s needs and 

intent for a high-end finish. The demolition process, while 

preserving the exterior façade, became an engineering 

feat. The external walls, standing tall at eight meters, were 

supported by Slimshor props, and closely monitored to 

ensure minimal movement. 

“There were survey points along the walls, and we ended 

up with a maximum of four millimetres of movement, 

through the whole demolition and construction phase, 

so that was exceptional.” said Darryn, acknowledging the 

excellence of the team who worked on the project. 

‘The Finish Line’ is home to four residential apartments, 

a level of offices, and car parking facilities, each reflecting 

a blend of industrial charm and modern luxury. The 

ground floor car park caters to the residential spaces, 

each equipped with high-speed electric car chargers. The 

residential apartments are crafted for both long-term 

use and short-term luxury living, with the latter featuring 

a standout cantilevered pool on the third floor. This 

architectural marvel, suspended eight meters above the 

ground and boasting a glass window at its end, offers a 

unique vantage point overlooking the Derwent River.
