CASE STUDIES
88 Wigram Rd,
Forest Lodge
Summary
This case study analyses a comprehensive remedial building and protective coating project at 88 Wigram Rd, Forest Lodge, commissioned by Precision Strata on behalf of SP83553. The work addresses critical building envelope failures including water ingress, render delamination, timber decay, and the installation of fall protection systems for future maintenance access. The project demonstrates integrated technical expertise across waterproofing, structural remediation, protective coatings, and safety compliance.
The analysis below examines each scope element, expands the technical rationale, identifies relevant compliance frameworks (BCA/NCC and Australian Standards), and validates material selection against job requirements.
6 Terralong St,
Kiama
Summary
This case study examines our proposal for the complete external repaint of the IRT Harbourside facility at Kiama. IRT Harbourside is an aged care and retirement living complex, presenting unique challenges for exterior maintenance due to the presence of vulnerable residents, the need for minimal disruption, coastal environmental conditions, and complex access requirements.
The project scope encompassed all previously painted exterior surfaces across multiple elevations, including masonry walls, gutters, fascias, window frames, soffits, balustrades, columns, and various architectural features.

West Ryde
Summary
This case study analyses a comprehensive external repainting and remedial works project at 22-26 Herbert Street, West Ryde, proposed by Line Rope Access Pty Ltd. The scope addresses critical building envelope deterioration including concrete spalling, render delamination, control joint failure, water ingress, and the need for safe height access. The project demonstrates our innovative technical integration of rope access methodology for façade remediation, eliminating the need for permanent anchor point installation while maintaining full compliance with working at heights standards.
The analysis below examines each scope element, expands our technical rationale, identifies relevant compliance frameworks (BCA/NCC, Australian Standards, and WHS regulations), validates our material selection against job requirements, and provides a comparative assessment against industry best practice case studies.
RPAH,
LINK BRIDGE
Summary
The Royal Prince Alfred Hospital (RPAH) is one of Australia’s oldest and most significant teaching hospitals. Its iconic Link Bridge is a large, multi-connecting steel structure that serves as a critical arterial passage, facilitating seamless access for patients, staff, and medical equipment between various hospital buildings.
While the structure provides a vital connection, its exposed steel framework is subject to a highly aggressive urban micro-environment. A recent structural audit identified significant defects typical of ageing steel infrastructure: widespread coating failure, active corrosion, and surface contamination compromising the structural integrity of the protective barrier.
