Working round the clock in shifts in order to work around the weather AAH had the tasks of performing the following:
AAH staged works over round the clock shifts in order to work in with the weather, ensuring minimal exposure to unprotected substrate.
Safe lifting procedures and use of mechanical aids were used to transport all material including the challenge of moving 90kg pavers, this was all done resulting in 0 lost time injuries for these works. Demolition robots were also deployed as a safe alternative to hard access areas.
All demolition, waste and garden bed material had to be craned down into a tight city laneway.
