Load 28 was selected as the facade install contractor for the curtain wall & frameless glass

installation at the Flinders University Student Hub Project. The builder for the project was

Lendlease, and we are proud to report a successful install project for our client and the

builder.

The scope for the Flinders Hub project, was to provide all the access, lifting solutions and

installation of curtain wall products in a very tight and restrictive site. Fortunately Load

28 is best suited for this type of work,, with its extensive fleet of limited access cranes,

vacuum lifting technology and installation crew.

The scope of the project consisted of the setout and fitting of all frameless glass point fix

brackets, curtain wall brackets and associated flashings.

The project quantities can be defined as:

* 784m2 of Framless glass panels, consisting of 162 panels

on budget and in accordance with the clients Quality Management System.

We are very proud of our achievement, as we challenged traditional install methodology

with our project management system and execution; to achieve a great outcome
