The Vantage Rhodes comprising of one 24 story and one low rise building consisting of 263 units, constructed using Precast Concrete Panels and Balustrades, located in Rhodes, NSW.
The building designed by Meriton Group working very closely with Advanced Precast (Aust.) to facilitate external precast panels as well as balustrade spandrel panels.
One of the challenges for this project was the external curved facade details which required curved steel moulds to manufacture these elements. Another challenge faced by the design team was design of panels on the roof levels due to the panels not being supported by any structural slabs. With Advanced Precast's input the team achieved a structural and constructible solution.
The construction of Vantage Rhodes took approximately 12 months to be completed, with ongoing support and works from Advanced Precast.
