Woolworths Two Rocks
Woolworths is the anchor tenant in the new Two Rocks Village shopping centre. DEM was engaged to provide peer review and technical support during the design and construction phases of the project. This included design reviews at 50% and 100% Issued for Construction (IFC) to enforce the requirements of the Woolworths HVAC Brief. The mechanical services design incorporated the use of two Packaged Air Conditioning units to maintain store temperatures and humidity; ventilation systems for plant rooms and cooking equipment; and VRF systems for all office areas. We worked collaboratively with the design team and Woolworths to ensure that the design fully complied with Woolworths’ brief requirements before construction commenced.
During the construction phase, our role involved undertaking inspections at ‘1st Fit’ where the majority of ductwork and systems are installed, to ensure that there were no anomalies, and inspecting again at the end of the project prior to Practical Completion (PC). This final inspection included coordinating a fully integrated fire test between all relevant services. Finally, we provided further support to ensure that all or any identified defects were rectified prior to the opening of the store.
