Edcon Steel structural steel and fabrication for the University of Sydney
In September 2007 Edcon Steel was selected to produce a one off
structural steel project - The University of Sydney, New Faculty of Law Building.
This project has consumed over 5000 hours of shop fabrication and welding time
and as is the case with a good deal of our work it is all covered up and never
seen. You have to know where to look.
For over 30 years Edcon Steel has been setting and meeting the challenges of
Structural Steel Supply, Fabrication, welding and erection.
We have worked with Australia's leading names in construction and contracting.
Our aim is to be the name which brings confidence with the delivery of structural
steel to your next project.
Edcon Steel has produced some unusual structures before but nothing quite like this.
Our decision to proceed with this project showed the confidence we have to complete
structures which will test our abilities. The result demonstrates emphatically what
can be done with structural steel using our professional team.
The job was broken into three major sections. The roof steel for the two buildings
and the "Light Tower" (pictured). The light tower had to have some of the most
complex geometry we have ever seen. The intersection of plane at an angle with a
cylinder at the front and a development of a line to a cone at the back.
It is not often a job covers such a great diversity of work including 90mm VSL
Bars supporting the link bridge (pictured inset). Stainless steel structures,
pipe work, cast - in structural steel elements and welded composite beams. All
of which had to be completed to very high standards as the Architects on this project
were looking for nothing short of excellence.
Edcon Steel extends our gratitude to all those on this project who have assisted us
in what was truly a challenging job, and we are looking forward to our next challenge.
