"polished concrete"

Challenge750m2 roof with a large quantity of vents, air conditioning units and other equipment on the roof. Add to this problem damaged aging torch membrane, combined with Governments regulations regarding solar absorption and reflectivity of the building posed a real challenge for the applicator when determining a solution for the job.A second challenge for this job is the location of the building was located in the built up CBD of Parramatta with neighbours in close proximity, which meant the solution needed to be neighbourhood friendly.SolutionGiven the complexity of solution required for such a job AlphaGuard BIO is the only product which ticks all the boxes. AlphaGuard BIO is an extremely high performing composite waterproofing system, designed with a focus on roofing restoration. Due to AlphaGuard BIO being a liquid, it makes it ideal for jobs where there are machinery on the roof which needs to be worked around.AlphaGuard BIO has the ability to be installed over various existing roofing membranes in order to minimise tenant disruption and extend the life of the roof for an additional 20 years.It cures to form a durable rubber membrane surface that provides a lasting and easy-to clean waterproof coating. AlphaGuard BIO may be used to apply a seamless, monolithic waterproof membrane to concrete, primed metal, or existing roofing membrane surfaces.AlphaGuard BIO’s low VOC will minimise offensive odours to current tenants and applicators. The white top coat provides high solar reflectance, reducing the building’s operation costs and complying with Section J1.3(b) of the 2019 NCC.

Termi Home & Commercial (SA) were proud to be a part of the historic Norwood Oval Redevelopment project in Adelaide, South Australia. As one of the most iconic football grounds in Adelaide only a non chemical termite management solution would do. We designed and installed the Termimesh System keeping in mind both the historical significance and the new facilities.The suitability of the Termimesh system for this project is based on its flexibility, which was necessary due to complex external geometry of the new construction and integration with the existing buildings. This presented challenges in performing remedial work. For example the Sir Edwin Smith Grandstand is heritage listed meaning minimal work was allowed to the external façade. This is where the strength of our termite management system lies. It can be customised for each individual project. Our estimating and design team will work alongside the architect, marking up plans and explaining how the system is applied to the design. Which in the case of the Norwood Oval was extremely important. We are on hand during the construction phase to iron out any challenges that may arise ensuring the installation process is simple, smooth and straightforward.Termimesh has maintained our position as market leader in termite protection in the South Australian construction industry for over 25 years, with a strong domestic and commercial portfolio. We are one of few companies that are triple certified to AS48001, ISO9001 and ISO14001 which delivers additional peace of mind for our clients.CONSTRUCTION TEAMSchiavello ConstructionOur team has a good relationship with the lead contractor, Schiavello, having worked on past projects together. They knew our capability and after a detailed review of the construction programme, we were sure we could meet their requirements. As a supporter and sponsor of the Norwood Football Club, Schiavello recognised the significance of the project for the community.  PROJECT DETAILSClient                          City of Norwood, Payneham & St Peters. Specifying Architects                                    Tridente ArchitectsInstallation Year                                              2019Installation Duration                                      7 monthsProject Value                                                    $9 mil TECHNICAL DETAILSInstallation Type                                             NumberService penetrations                                     200Column blockouts                                          7.5 LM                 Cluster penetrations                                     4Control joints                                                   315 LMConstruction joints                                        73 LMSaw cut service penetrations                    147 LMConcrete slab pours                                      NumerousPerimeter                                                          147 LMKey Termimesh Personnel                          Drew Wilson- Account Development ManagerShane Waye, Senior EstimatorAnthony Bennett- Operations Field Manager
