80-86 Spit Rd Mosman

Structural and Façade Engineering

Zait is excited to be designing the structure for this prestige apartment project in the harbourside suburb of Mosman, designed by PBD Architects.

These prestige apartments have 3 levels of apartments with an undulating façade to Spit Rd. There are 2 levels of parking underground. The apartments all boast of large balconies shaped by the convolutions of the façade and cantilevering where possible to give uninterrupted views.

The shoring system was close to multiple utilities in Spit Road and the design investigated the interactions with these pipes and cables. The shoring system also retained the Spit Road which is a RMS asset and the design approval was required from that department. The architectural design drove a post tensioned solution to cater for large spans and column transfers. We provided full post-tensioned design and documentation.

The façade was a complex undulating screen of vertical metal posts and glass balustrades cantilevering off the concrete upstands with point fixings. ZAIT provided full design and documentation of these façade systems.
