APS Delivers Turnkey Staircase Solution for Aikenhead Centre for Medical Discovery

APS is proud to have played a key role in the successful delivery of the Aikenhead Centre for Medical Discovery (ACMD), one of Australia’s most advanced medical research facilities. Our team was engaged to design, engineer, and install a 10-storey interconnecting feature staircase as part of this landmark build.

About the Project:

  • Project: Aikenhead Centre for Medical Discovery
  • Client: Kane Constructions
  • Location: Melbourne, VIC
  • APS Services: Design, Engineering, Steelwork, Rigging, Scaffold, Cladding, Balustrade & Handrail Installation

 

 

Scope of Work

This complex scope required a fully integrated, multi-disciplinary approach delivered entirely by APS. Our turnkey solution included:

  • Custom design and engineering
  • Structural steel fabrication and installation
  • Rigging and scaffold works
  • Cladding
  • Glass and steel balustrades
  • Handrail installation

The nature of the staircase installation demanded a high degree of coordination and technical problem-solving due to the challenging structural and spatial constraints of the site. The result is a striking architectural feature that supports both the functionality and aesthetics of the new ACMD facility.
