Stratton on Murray Complex
Structural Strengthening, Waterproofing, Brick Stitching/Pinning, Rendering
Construct 360
Description
Located at 418 Murray Street, in the heart of Perth’s trendy and centrally located west end, Stratton on Murray is an 18-floor apartment complex which underwent extensive refurbishments in 2018-2019.
Construct 360, head contractors for the project, engaged BUSS to complete structural strengthening works to the balconies at the west façade of the structure; it was determined that the balconies had endured extensive damage due to poor engineering at initial construction. BUSS completed the work in stages so as to minimise disruption to the activities of other contractors on site.
Subsequent to the structural strengthening works, Construct 360 retained BUSS’ services again to complete brick stitching (Retrofix and Dryfix procedures), brick pinning and rendering to the west façade of the complex; as well as waterproofing to the podium deck.
