Loyola College STEM Building
Loyola College was established in 1980. Its Resource Centre and Mary Mackillop buildings were poorly connected and lacking in space and well overdue for an upgrade. This project was to create a new STEM building.
Having contributed to the successful Cardnor building extension, Miglic MacLeod was re-engaged to provide civil and structural detailed design and construction stage services for the new building.
This three-storey building included concrete framing and PT slabs for the ground floor and level 1, a steel structure for level 2 framing and roof, as well as structural connections and architectural links to both buildings.
Miglic MacLeod worked closely with the architect and other stakeholders to overcome several challenges, which included:
- Delivering around existing services under the proposed building area including main stormwater drainage pipes
- Ensuring fire separation between buildings
- Defining details of connection of new building to the existing buildings
- Providing secondary steel framing design for complex facade combined with stairs
- Cost constraints
