Hera Engineering is working for Lendlease delivering the structural design for the Curtin University TL Robertson Library Refurbishment & Services Upgrade. The structural scope includes the design of a brand-new multi-level structural steel service tower and full internal refurbishment which will require a number of structural additions, strengthening and verification of the existing structure.
The architectural design is by Hames Sharley in partnership with international architecture firm, Schmidt Hammer Lassen Architects.
The re-design focuses on preserving the building’s iconic brutalist architecture, whilst creating additional internal space through the construction of a new service tower and revitalising internal spaces to facilitate an exemplar experience in informal learning, knowledge sharing and collaboration across disciplines.
