Metropol is ready to welcome its guests into the newest luxury residential apartments in the CBD of Canberra.
This residential building, designed by Fender Katsalidis, presents an inner-city habitat that comprehends 110 personalized units and a hanging garden for residents to relax in, and room for commercial properties on the ground floor.
Hera Engineering has been appointed by Geocon Group to undertake all the structural design for this project. This has been an extremely challenging project due to the large variety of apartments type which made structural vertical continuity very difficult. We have worked very hard with the Geocon Group architectural team to rationalize the structure and remove transfer levels as much as possible. The final solution included a mix of precast and AFS walls and post tensioned slabs.
We are really proud of the continuous collaboration with Geocon Group on important projects such as this one. We both share the vision of shaping the landscape and the urban design of Australian most icon cities and working together has put this vision into practise.
