Savcon played an integral part throughout the design phase assisting design consultants with buildability. Savcon undertook the timber installation package consisting of 418m 3 intricate timber “saw-tooth” roof with splice connections made from Masslam GLT by Australian Sustainable Hardwoods ASH (Heyfield, Victoria).

The project aims to revitalise, adapt and activate the Forestry Building precinct, to provide a new CBD location across 14,000sqm for the College – with sustainability at the forefront.
