Our services for this new palisade high security fence in Watt Road, Mornington included managing all aspects of the design, permit and construction stages.

– concept stage –

The concept design stage for this palisade high security fence included the following key considerations:

• Construction adjacent to significant in-ground and above-ground telecommunications infrastructure
• Working within an active depot
• Upgrading of live sewer and stormwater services
• Heavy rainfall and extreme heat
• Variable ground conditions

Our ‘order of cost’ included an estimate of costs, the project scope, general specification, health and safety requirements, assumptions and further investigative work required during the ‘develop’ stage.

– develop stage –

We provided recommendations for cost-effective consultants including a draftsman, structural engineer, geotechnical engineer and a building surveyor.

We managed the design team and performed site inspections to confirm the location and depth of in-ground services including power, water, gas, Telstra, NBN, sewer and stormwater.

The design of this palisade high security fence triggered several permit requirements including council and authority report and consent, build over easement consent and a planning permit.

We managed the building permit application process on behalf of our clients and provided them with copies of all stamped documentation, permits, insurances and certificates.

The project comprised the construction of a new palisade high security fence to the northern, southern, eastern and western boundaries of United Energy’s depot in Mornington. The project scope included:
