          Project
              St Catherine's School Sydney, Research, Performing Arts and Aquatic Centre
          This project, on a restricted site, and with large structural spans is a fine example of the efficient use of concrete and the builders innovative and flexible approach to construction difficulties with this difficult structural build. 
Works included a 500mm thick pool base slab supporting 1.8 million litres of water. 
The pool superstructure was precast shell columns supporting precast shell beams and a precast deck slab. 
Shell beams, 2 meters apart, had reinforcing and multi- strand post tensioning, similar to that used in bridge construction. 
The standard of finish is very high and is a credit to the construction team.
