This building on the corner of Flinders street and Kings way is a large scale version of 191 Malop Street (as aforementioned in my prior blog entry), but within the construction phase.
This Large scale long-span concrete framed building has the potential to be used for many purposes due to its open plan. Like 191 Malop street, this building is supported by its reinforced concrete columns and floor slabs while the cladding and fenestration is supported by metal framing systems.
These framing systems are then in turn simply bolted to the existing slabs. As can be seen in the photo of the rounded corner, the use of metal framing for the cladding allows for a detailed, dynamic and strong external skin.
