Richard Crookes commenced a project with very difficult site restraints such as access, existing slab loading restrictions, Difficult Design intent. This included restriction on the Steel, in both Design and Fabrication/Erection 
Samaras & Richard Crookes site team embraced the Design in the resolution of the entire construction process. The Architect required slender columns & beams to be exposed which required welded connections, a great deal of which were done on site. Intumescent paint was required on the exposed members, the solution & product selected by Samaras to achieve the finish had not been used previously in Australia. The paint system had not been used in Australia before.
The internal steel stair fabricated off site and finished on site in sections, because of its size is spectacular, and the overall result of steel on this project is exceptional.
