ERINA FAIR EXPANSION SCP Consulting was selected as the structural engineer by Bovis Lend Lease based on our ability to produce economical designs within tight construction programs. The Erina Fair Expansion was the biggest construction project undertaken by BLL in 2002 and 2003. The project was divided into five segments based on staged opening of the new retail precinct.
|
 |
|
1) |
Erina Corner |
2 levels of car park over the retail level. The feature of this precinct was the intricate roof over the mall, including large cantilevers at the mall entry. Hamper trusses along the malls were designed to support cantilevered awnings as well as the shopfronts. |
|
|
2) |
Parallel Mall and Boardwalk Extension and Multideck Car park |
The existing curved roof of the Boardwalk was replicated in the Parallel Mall. Link nodes between the main walls consisted of intricate and complicated steel framing, exacerbated because the link nodes straddled the new and existing steel framing. The retail area extended over a four-lane road, requiring the post-tensioned floors to span across the roads. The structure was designed to resist bus impact loads and the analysis of the floor slabs including checking for floor vibration |
|
|
3) |
Multideck Car park |
35,000 sq. metres of post-tensioned floor slabs over 4 levels. Each level is linked via a curved high-speed exit ramp. The screens around the car park provided the required aesthetics plus capable of resisting the car impact. |
|
|
4) |
Home and Lifestyle |
Three-storey building having two retail levels over an on-ground car park and service docks. The retail space was designed for large area/single use tenants necessitating economical, clear span steel roof structures The facades incorporated architectural embellishments to the shopfronts. A large landscape tub, was incorporated in the centre of the open public space. The area was designed to support a feature fountain water and mature trees in soil depths up to 1200mm. |
|
|
5) |
Town Square |
Two-storey building encapsulating open community and public space. The steel framed building incorporated various architectural forms along the building facades and shopfronts, requiring the structural steelwork to perform structurally while forming the finishes to the buildings. |

The final designs reflected the quantities provided to BLL during the preliminary cost planning stage, they were pro-active in co-ordinating the building elements and delivered documentation according to program."
