PROJECT: Melbourne IVF
Architect: Architectus
The Melbourne IVF incorporated two buildings, 344 Victoria Parade and the Freemasons
Hospital. The project consisted of two floors of laboratories and one floor of offices with
a reception area, meeting rooms and lobby. Due to extensive and complex hydraulic and
services requirements, a large proportion of the project budget involved the services
package. Significant project time was required in the coordination of services within the
restrictive space of the 500mm deep ceiling void.
The building was completely stripped of all services and
partitions. The hydraulic and services packages alone were
worth in excess of $1.2 million. Despite 30 days of delay due to
latent conditions, careful and thorough planning enabled the
project to be handed over on the original completion date.
